Andy rode slowly to school, daydreaming about the fishing trip his father had promised. He was so absorbed in his thoughts that he didn’t notice anything around him.
He rode along until a strange sound drew him to the present. He came to a stop and looked curiously up to the heavens. What he saw shocked and terrified him. A huge swarm of bees filled the sky like a black cloud and the buzzing mass seemed to be heading angrily towards him.
With no time to waste, Andy sped off in the opposite direction, riding furiously — but without knowing how to escape the swarm. With a rapidly beating heart and his legs pumping furiously, he sped down the rough road. As the bees came closer, his panic increased. Andy knew that he was sensitive to bee stings (蜇). The last sting had landed him in hospital — and that was only one bee sting! He had been forced to stay in bed for two whole days. Suddenly, his father’s words came to him. “When you are in a tight situation, don’t panic. Use your brain and think your way out of it.”
He saw smoke rising from the chimney of the Nelson family home on a nearby hill and remembered that bees dislike smoke. However, he realized he couldn’t reach the house in time.
Then, he spotted a small dam used by Mr. Nelson to irrigate (灌溉) his garden. Without hesitating, Andy jumped off his bike and dived into the cool water, sinking below the surface to escape the bees. When he finally came up for air, the bees were gone. Exhausted, Andy climbed out of the dam, struggled up the hill, and rang the Nelsons’ doorbell. Mrs. Nelson brought him inside and called his mother.
Relieved, his mother said, “You’ll really need that fishing break to help you recover. Thank goodness you didn’t panic!” But Andy was already lost in his dream about catching fish the next day.

Tyler Dison had just finished his night shift (夜班) when a call came across the radio. An apartment near the police station had caught fire and the dispatcher (调度员) reported a 3-year-old child trapped inside.
Though firefighters were on the way, Tyler knew he could get there sooner. And so, the 25-year-old police officer raced to the scene determined to help. “I must save this child at all costs,” he thought.
When Tyler Dison arrived at the apartment building, he saw fire flames shooting out of the windows. The police officer gave no thought to his own safety. Instead, he rushed into the flames.
Rushing into the apartment filled with flames and thick, black smoke. Tyler immediately began searching for the child. The heat was unbearable but the brave officer refused to give up until, at last, he located the child.
Officer Dison raced out with the 3-year-old boy in his arms, taking the child to his police car. The brave hero then drove to meet the ambulance (救护车) halfway so the boy could receive medical attention as quickly as possible.
“If I hadn’t done something, that baby would have died,” Officer Dison explained. “His breathing was very shallow, and he wasn’t really responding.”
Officer Dison got burned in his arm. However, it didn’t matter to Tyler Dison. All he cared about was saving the 3-year-old. And thanks to his courage, the little boy got the help he needed and is going to be just fine.
“I’m so happy that baby is doing OK,” Tyler said. “I grew up in this town, I want to protect it always.”
The call Tyler Dison received that day was unlike any one he had ever experienced. Even so, when he arrived at the scene, Tyler’s past training and his deep desire to save lives told him just what to do.

For years, scientists have been trying to figure out whether “brain workouts” such as puzzles (字谜) and online cognitive games could strengthen our minds and slow the process of aging.
Now, a study has found that regularly attempting a crossword may help slow decline in some people with mild cognitive impairment (障碍), an early stage of faltering memory that can sometimes progress to dementia (痴呆症).
While the study didn't investigate whether crosswords benefit younger adults who are not dealing with cognitive decline, it suggests that keeping your mind active as you age may benefit your brain. And the research offers hope to those diagnosed with mild cognitive impairment that they may be able to stave off further declines in the memory, language problems and decision-making that are the hallmark of the condition.
The American Academy of Neurology estimates that mild cognitive impairment affects about 8 percent of people ages 65 to 69; 10 percent of people ages 70 to 74; 15 percent of people ages 75 to 79; 25 percent of those ages 80 to 84; and about 37 percent of people 85 and older.
The research, which was funded by the National Institute on Aging, recruited 107 adults ages 55 to 95 with mild cognitive impairment. For 12 weeks, they were all asked to play one of two types of games, four times a week—spending either 30 minutes on Lumosity, a popular cognitive training platform, or 30 minutes attempting a digital crossword. After 12 weeks, the participants were reevaluated and given "booster" doses of game play six more times during the 78-week experiment.
By the end of the study, participants were given standard assessments used to measure cognitive decline, and friends and family reported on their day-to-day functioning. MRI scans also were used to measure brain volume changes.
Researchers found that in key measurements—cognitive decline scores, functional skills and brain volume changes—the regular crossword players fared better than the game players.
The finding surprised the scientists behind the study who had expected that challenging web-based brain games, which were specifically designed to boost cognitive function, would offer the most benefit.
“Our study shows that in people with mild cognitive impairment, crossword puzzles beat the computerized games on multiple metrics, ” said Murali Doraiswamy, a co-author of the study. “So, if you have mild cognitive impairment, which is different from normal aging, then the recommendation would be to keep your brain active with crossword puzzles.”
People with higher degrees of cognitive impairment appeared to benefit the most from doing the crossword, which was designed to be a moderately difficult puzzle comparable to the Thursday game.
The study has limitations. Some of the participants may have just been more familiar with crosswords and that's why they responded better to the puzzles than to Lumosity's computer games. More years of follow-up also are needed to determine whether interventions such as crossword puzzles can “truly prevent dementia,” Doraiswamy said.
31.What does the underlined phrase "stave off" in Paragraph 3 probably mean?
A.Promote. B.Prevent. C.Experience. D.Cause.
32.Paragraph 4 is written to_________.
A.show a concerning condition B.compare different groups
C.present real-life examples D.prove an assumption
33.What can we learn from the passage?
A.One's degree of cognitive impairment depends on how old he is.
B.Solving crossword puzzles is a recommendation to elderly people.
C.The efficiency of puzzles in preventing dementia has been proved.
D.Crosswords' effects are linked to how serious cognitive impairment is.
34.What makes the findings of the study far from conclusive?
A.The lack of variables. B.The weaknesses of assessments.
C.The insufficiency of time span. D.The subjects' preference for games.
第二节(共 5 小题;每小题 2 分,共 10 分)
根据短文内容,从短文后的七个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。选项中有两项为多余选项。
The moment any birdwatcher spots a striking and unfamiliar bird, the first thing they do is to pull out a phone and identify the species. This suggests curiosity is all about acting now. It drives us to find answers as soon as possible. The impatience for answers mirrors what psychologists think is a main function of curiosity: to reduce uncertainty. 35 In a recent study, scientists have found that it can also inspire more patience, setting people up for those moments of discovery.
They asked more than 2,000 people aged 19 to 76 years to watch a series of short videos. Each video started with a blank(空白的) screen. 36 While the participants watched each video, the scientists would ask them how curious they were about what the drawing would become. They also made guesses about what the drawing was going to turn into and how much joy or annoyance they felt. Interestingly, when participants were more curious, they were more likely to continue watching. 37 The experiment also revealed that as people watched the video, curiosity would change across the journey. Yet regardless of how curiosity changed, people with greater curiosity tend to engage in the process.
38 First, it underlines the complexity of curiosity, opening new paths for research to explore its varieties. It also highlights the significance of engaging with uncertainty: Having to consider and predict answers can improve learning and memory, and curiosity can promote brain states that help us store new information. Learning new things can be challenging. 39
A.But this picture of curiosity is incomplete.
B.However, curiosity makes people eager for knowledge.
C.The possible effects of the research are really impressive.
D.So when uncertainty was greatest, curiosity was experienced with joy.
E.A line would then appear and move around, gradually taking a shape.
F.In other words, higher curiosity motivated people to slow down and be patient.
G.However, making good use of curiosity can help us enjoy the process of learning.

The Land of Smiles: A Beginners Guide to Etiquette (礼仪) in Thailand
To: JohnnyBoy0303@hotmail.com
Sender: Farang555@gmail.com
Subject: RE: I’m coming to Thailand! ! !
Hey Johnny!
Great news about your visit to Thailand. I shall roll out the red carpet for your arrival! I’m still having a great time here. It’s difficult to work in this heat, but the people here are so kind, and life is generally quite relaxed, so it beats another rainy winter in Scotland. About your questions:
1. Yes, you should learn a little bit of Thai if you can! It’s not an easy language to speak or read, but a little effort will go a long way. Thais are really respectful people. When they greet you, they’ll usually put both of their hands together, and bow their head a little bit. If anyone does it to you, it’s very important that you do it back.
2. Yes, the food is spicy! But it’s so delicious. Thais use a lot of exotic ingredients like coconut, lemongrass, and lime leaves when they’re cooking, so you get some really rich flavours. Actually, I think I never want to eat British food again after living here! Don’t worry—you’re going to love it, and it’s cheap too!
3. Yes, there are a few things to be aware of. Firstly, Thais look at the head as being sacred, so don’t go around patting people on the head, not even kids. The head is the highest part of the body, and the feet are the lowest, so guess what? Don’t do things with your feet. I know it sounds stupid, but just be careful that you’re not pointing your feet at people or kicking them to get their attention or anything like that, and definitely do not put your feet up on tables or chairs—it will be considered very rude.
I think it’s very important to remember that Thais love their royal family too, so you should be respectful towards that. Once, my friend and I were visiting Bangkok, and he dropped a coin, I stamped on it to stop it rolling, and some people seemed quite angry, and we couldn’t work out why. A hotel staff explained to us: Putting my foot on the coin was like stamping on a picture of the king! We told the hotel staff how sorry we were. I think it’s really important to be aware of these things that might mean a lot to other people even though you would never think of them yourself.
Anyway, don’t worry too much. Just be polite and respectful. You’ll have a great time here.
Looking forward to seeing you in the Land of Smiles!
Archie
40.What does the writer feel about Thailand?
41.According to the third answer in Archie’s email, please write down the question that Johnny might ask.
42.Please decide which part is false in the following statement, then underline it and explain why.
Some Thais seemed quite angry when seeing the writer use his foot to stop the coin rolling because it wouldn’t work.
43.Suppose Johnny is coming to China. He is curious about etiquette in China and asks you for help. Please write 1 or 2 tips for him. (In about 40 words)

Tyler Dison had just finished his night shift (夜班) when a call came across the radio. An apartment near the police station had caught fire and the dispatcher (调度员) reported a 3-year-old child trapped inside.
Though firefighters were on the way, Tyler knew he could get there sooner. And so, the 25-year-old police officer raced to the scene determined to help. “I must save this child at all costs,” he thought.
When Tyler Dison arrived at the apartment building, he saw fire flames shooting out of the windows. The police officer gave no thought to his own safety. Instead, he rushed into the flames.
Rushing into the apartment filled with flames and thick, black smoke. Tyler immediately began searching for the child. The heat was unbearable but the brave officer refused to give up until, at last, he located the child.
Officer Dison raced out with the 3-year-old boy in his arms, taking the child to his police car. The brave hero then drove to meet the ambulance (救护车) halfway so the boy could receive medical attention as quickly as possible.
“If I hadn’t done something, that baby would have died,” Officer Dison explained. “His breathing was very shallow, and he wasn’t really responding.”
Officer Dison got burned in his arm. However, it didn’t matter to Tyler Dison. All he cared about was saving the 3-year-old. And thanks to his courage, the little boy got the help he needed and is going to be just fine.
“I’m so happy that baby is doing OK,” Tyler said. “I grew up in this town, I want to protect it always.”
The call Tyler Dison received that day was unlike any one he had ever experienced. Even so, when he arrived at the scene, Tyler’s past training and his deep desire to save lives told him just what to do.

For years, scientists have been trying to figure out whether “brain workouts” such as puzzles (字谜) and online cognitive games could strengthen our minds and slow the process of aging.
Now, a study has found that regularly attempting a crossword may help slow decline in some people with mild cognitive impairment (障碍), an early stage of faltering memory that can sometimes progress to dementia (痴呆症).
While the study didn't investigate whether crosswords benefit younger adults who are not dealing with cognitive decline, it suggests that keeping your mind active as you age may benefit your brain. And the research offers hope to those diagnosed with mild cognitive impairment that they may be able to stave off further declines in the memory, language problems and decision-making that are the hallmark of the condition.
The American Academy of Neurology estimates that mild cognitive impairment affects about 8 percent of people ages 65 to 69; 10 percent of people ages 70 to 74; 15 percent of people ages 75 to 79; 25 percent of those ages 80 to 84; and about 37 percent of people 85 and older.
The research, which was funded by the National Institute on Aging, recruited 107 adults ages 55 to 95 with mild cognitive impairment. For 12 weeks, they were all asked to play one of two types of games, four times a week—spending either 30 minutes on Lumosity, a popular cognitive training platform, or 30 minutes attempting a digital crossword. After 12 weeks, the participants were reevaluated and given "booster" doses of game play six more times during the 78-week experiment.
By the end of the study, participants were given standard assessments used to measure cognitive decline, and friends and family reported on their day-to-day functioning. MRI scans also were used to measure brain volume changes.
Researchers found that in key measurements—cognitive decline scores, functional skills and brain volume changes—the regular crossword players fared better than the game players.
The finding surprised the scientists behind the study who had expected that challenging web-based brain games, which were specifically designed to boost cognitive function, would offer the most benefit.
“Our study shows that in people with mild cognitive impairment, crossword puzzles beat the computerized games on multiple metrics, ” said Murali Doraiswamy, a co-author of the study. “So, if you have mild cognitive impairment, which is different from normal aging, then the recommendation would be to keep your brain active with crossword puzzles.”
People with higher degrees of cognitive impairment appeared to benefit the most from doing the crossword, which was designed to be a moderately difficult puzzle comparable to the Thursday game.
The study has limitations. Some of the participants may have just been more familiar with crosswords and that's why they responded better to the puzzles than to Lumosity's computer games. More years of follow-up also are needed to determine whether interventions such as crossword puzzles can “truly prevent dementia,” Doraiswamy said.
31.What does the underlined phrase "stave off" in Paragraph 3 probably mean?
A.Promote. B.Prevent. C.Experience. D.Cause.
32.Paragraph 4 is written to_________.
A.show a concerning condition B.compare different groups
C.present real-life examples D.prove an assumption
33.What can we learn from the passage?
A.One's degree of cognitive impairment depends on how old he is.
B.Solving crossword puzzles is a recommendation to elderly people.
C.The efficiency of puzzles in preventing dementia has been proved.
D.Crosswords' effects are linked to how serious cognitive impairment is.
34.What makes the findings of the study far from conclusive?
A.The lack of variables. B.The weaknesses of assessments.
C.The insufficiency of time span. D.The subjects' preference for games.
第二节(共 5 小题;每小题 2 分,共 10 分)
根据短文内容,从短文后的七个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。选项中有两项为多余选项。
The moment any birdwatcher spots a striking and unfamiliar bird, the first thing they do is to pull out a phone and identify the species. This suggests curiosity is all about acting now. It drives us to find answers as soon as possible. The impatience for answers mirrors what psychologists think is a main function of curiosity: to reduce uncertainty. 35 In a recent study, scientists have found that it can also inspire more patience, setting people up for those moments of discovery.
They asked more than 2,000 people aged 19 to 76 years to watch a series of short videos. Each video started with a blank(空白的) screen. 36 While the participants watched each video, the scientists would ask them how curious they were about what the drawing would become. They also made guesses about what the drawing was going to turn into and how much joy or annoyance they felt. Interestingly, when participants were more curious, they were more likely to continue watching. 37 The experiment also revealed that as people watched the video, curiosity would change across the journey. Yet regardless of how curiosity changed, people with greater curiosity tend to engage in the process.
38 First, it underlines the complexity of curiosity, opening new paths for research to explore its varieties. It also highlights the significance of engaging with uncertainty: Having to consider and predict answers can improve learning and memory, and curiosity can promote brain states that help us store new information. Learning new things can be challenging. 39
A.But this picture of curiosity is incomplete.
B.However, curiosity makes people eager for knowledge.
C.The possible effects of the research are really impressive.
D.So when uncertainty was greatest, curiosity was experienced with joy.
E.A line would then appear and move around, gradually taking a shape.
F.In other words, higher curiosity motivated people to slow down and be patient.
G.However, making good use of curiosity can help us enjoy the process of learning.

The Land of Smiles: A Beginners Guide to Etiquette (礼仪) in Thailand
To: JohnnyBoy0303@hotmail.com
Sender: Farang555@gmail.com
Subject: RE: I’m coming to Thailand! ! !
Hey Johnny!
Great news about your visit to Thailand. I shall roll out the red carpet for your arrival! I’m still having a great time here. It’s difficult to work in this heat, but the people here are so kind, and life is generally quite relaxed, so it beats another rainy winter in Scotland. About your questions:
1. Yes, you should learn a little bit of Thai if you can! It’s not an easy language to speak or read, but a little effort will go a long way. Thais are really respectful people. When they greet you, they’ll usually put both of their hands together, and bow their head a little bit. If anyone does it to you, it’s very important that you do it back.
2. Yes, the food is spicy! But it’s so delicious. Thais use a lot of exotic ingredients like coconut, lemongrass, and lime leaves when they’re cooking, so you get some really rich flavours. Actually, I think I never want to eat British food again after living here! Don’t worry—you’re going to love it, and it’s cheap too!
3. Yes, there are a few things to be aware of. Firstly, Thais look at the head as being sacred, so don’t go around patting people on the head, not even kids. The head is the highest part of the body, and the feet are the lowest, so guess what? Don’t do things with your feet. I know it sounds stupid, but just be careful that you’re not pointing your feet at people or kicking them to get their attention or anything like that, and definitely do not put your feet up on tables or chairs—it will be considered very rude.
I think it’s very important to remember that Thais love their royal family too, so you should be respectful towards that. Once, my friend and I were visiting Bangkok, and he dropped a coin, I stamped on it to stop it rolling, and some people seemed quite angry, and we couldn’t work out why. A hotel staff explained to us: Putting my foot on the coin was like stamping on a picture of the king! We told the hotel staff how sorry we were. I think it’s really important to be aware of these things that might mean a lot to other people even though you would never think of them yourself.
Anyway, don’t worry too much. Just be polite and respectful. You’ll have a great time here.
Looking forward to seeing you in the Land of Smiles!
Archie

Andy rode slowly to school, daydreaming about the fishing trip his father had promised. He was so absorbed in his thoughts that he didn’t notice anything around him.
He rode along until a strange sound drew him to the present. He came to a stop and looked curiously up to the heavens. What he saw shocked and terrified him. A huge swarm of bees filled the sky like a black cloud and the buzzing mass seemed to be heading angrily towards him.
With no time to waste, Andy sped off in the opposite direction, riding furiously — but without knowing how to escape the swarm. With a rapidly beating heart and his legs pumping furiously, he sped down the rough road. As the bees came closer, his panic increased. Andy knew that he was sensitive to bee stings (蜇). The last sting had landed him in hospital — and that was only one bee sting! He had been forced to stay in bed for two whole days. Suddenly, his father’s words came to him. “When you are in a tight situation, don’t panic. Use your brain and think your way out of it.”
He saw smoke rising from the chimney of the Nelson family home on a nearby hill and remembered that bees dislike smoke. However, he realized he couldn’t reach the house in time.
Then, he spotted a small dam used by Mr. Nelson to irrigate (灌溉) his garden. Without hesitating, Andy jumped off his bike and dived into the cool water, sinking below the surface to escape the bees. When he finally came up for air, the bees were gone. Exhausted, Andy climbed out of the dam, struggled up the hill, and rang the Nelsons’ doorbell. Mrs. Nelson brought him inside and called his mother.
Relieved, his mother said, “You’ll really need that fishing break to help you recover. Thank goodness you didn’t panic!” But Andy was already lost in his dream about catching fish the next day.
24.Why did Andy fail to notice the swarm of bees earlier?
A.He was lost in the thought of the fishing trip. B.He was going fishing with his father.
C.He was listening to a strange sound. D.He was riding to school quickly.
25.Why was Andy particularly afraid of the bees?
A.He had never seen bees before. B.He thought bees were a little bit poisonous.
C.He was especially afraid of the small insects. D.He had been hospitalized from a sting before.
26.How did Andy avoid the bees in the end?
A.He asked Mr. Nelson for help. B.He hid himself under the water.
C.He rushed into the Nelson house. D.He rode off in the opposite direction.
27.Which of the following can best describe Andy’s escape from the bees?
A.No pains, no gains. B.Once bitten, twice shy.
C.Where there is a will, there is a way. D.In time of danger, one’s mind works fast.
【参考答案】24.A 25.D 26.B 27.D

Tyler Dison had just finished his night shift (夜班) when a call came across the radio. An apartment near the police station had caught fire and the dispatcher (调度员) reported a 3-year-old child trapped inside.
Though firefighters were on the way, Tyler knew he could get there sooner. And so, the 25-year-old police officer raced to the scene determined to help. “I must save this child at all costs,” he thought.
When Tyler Dison arrived at the apartment building, he saw fire flames shooting out of the windows. The police officer gave no thought to his own safety. Instead, he rushed into the flames.
Rushing into the apartment filled with flames and thick, black smoke. Tyler immediately began searching for the child. The heat was unbearable but the brave officer refused to give up until, at last, he located the child.
Officer Dison raced out with the 3-year-old boy in his arms, taking the child to his police car. The brave hero then drove to meet the ambulance (救护车) halfway so the boy could receive medical attention as quickly as possible.

For years, scientists have been trying to figure out whether “brain workouts” such as puzzles (字谜) and online cognitive games could strengthen our minds and slow the process of aging.
Now, a study has found that regularly attempting a crossword may help slow decline in some people with mild cognitive impairment (障碍), an early stage of faltering memory that can sometimes progress to dementia (痴呆症).
While the study didn't investigate whether crosswords benefit younger adults who are not dealing with cognitive decline, it suggests that keeping your mind active as you age may benefit your brain. And the research offers hope to those diagnosed with mild cognitive impairment that they may be able to stave off further declines in the memory, language problems and decision-making that are the hallmark of the condition.
The American Academy of Neurology estimates that mild cognitive impairment affects about 8 percent of people ages 65 to 69; 10 percent of people ages 70 to 74; 15 percent of people ages 75 to 79; 25 percent of those ages 80 to 84; and about 37 percent of people 85 and older.
The research, which was funded by the National Institute on Aging, recruited 107 adults ages 55 to 95 with mild cognitive impairment. For 12 weeks, they were all asked to play one of two types of games, four times a week—spending either 30 minutes on Lumosity, a popular cognitive training platform, or 30 minutes attempting a digital crossword. After 12 weeks, the participants were reevaluated and given "booster" doses of game play six more times during the 78-week experiment.
By the end of the study, participants were given standard assessments used to measure cognitive decline, and friends and family reported on their day-to-day functioning. MRI scans also were used to measure brain volume changes.
Researchers found that in key measurements—cognitive decline scores, functional skills and brain volume changes—the regular crossword players fared better than the game players.
The finding surprised the scientists behind the study who had expected that challenging web-based brain games, which were specifically designed to boost cognitive function, would offer the most benefit.
“Our study shows that in people with mild cognitive impairment, crossword puzzles beat the computerized games on multiple metrics, ” said Murali Doraiswamy, a co-author of the study. “So, if you have mild cognitive impairment, which is different from normal aging, then the recommendation would be to keep your brain active with crossword puzzles.”
People with higher degrees of cognitive impairment appeared to benefit the most from doing the crossword, which was designed to be a moderately difficult puzzle comparable to the Thursday game.
The study has limitations. Some of the participants may have just been more familiar with crosswords and that's why they responded better to the puzzles than to Lumosity's computer games. More years of follow-up also are needed to determine whether interventions such as crossword puzzles can “truly prevent dementia,” Doraiswamy said.
31.What does the underlined phrase "stave off" in Paragraph 3 probably mean?
A.Promote. B.Prevent. C.Experience. D.Cause.
32.Paragraph 4 is written to_________.
A.show a concerning condition B.compare different groups
C.present real-life examples D.prove an assumption
33.What can we learn from the passage?
A.One's degree of cognitive impairment depends on how old he is.
B.Solving crossword puzzles is a recommendation to elderly people.
C.The efficiency of puzzles in preventing dementia has been proved.
D.Crosswords' effects are linked to how serious cognitive impairment is.
34.What makes the findings of the study far from conclusive?
A.The lack of variables. B.The weaknesses of assessments.
C.The insufficiency of time span. D.The subjects' preference for games.
【参考答案】31.B 32.A 33.D 34.C
【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍一项研究发现,定期尝试填字游戏可能有助于减缓一些轻度认知障碍患者的衰退。
【详情解析】
31.词句猜测题。根据划线词上文“And the research offers hope to those diagnosed with mild cognitive impairment (这项研究给那些被诊断患有轻度认知障碍的人带来了希望)”由此可推知下文they may be able to stave off further declines in the memory意思是“他们可能能够避免记忆力、语言问题和决策能力的进一步下降”,可知stave off意思是阻止,预防,和prevent同义,故选B。
32.推理判断题。根据第四段“The American Academy of Neurology estimates that mild cognitive impairment affects about 8 percent of people ages 65 to 69; 10 percent of people ages 70 to 74; 15 percent of people ages 75 to 79; 25 percent of those ages 80 to 84; and about 37 percent of people 85 and older. (美国神经病学学会(American Academy of Neurology)估计,在65岁至69岁的人群中,约有8%的人患有轻度认知障碍;70 - 74岁的人占10%;15%的人年龄在75到79岁之间;年龄在80到84岁之间的人占25%;大约37%的85岁及以上的人。)”和第五段“The research, which was funded by the National Institute on Aging, recruited 107 adults ages 55 to 95 with mild cognitive impairment. (这项研究由美国国家老龄研究所(National Institute on Aging)资助,招募了107名年龄在55岁至95岁之间、患有轻度认知障碍的成年人。)”可推知写第四段是为了说明研究对象的相关情况,故选A。
33.推理判断题。根据倒数第三段“‘Our study shows that in people with mild cognitive impairment, crossword puzzles beat the computerized games on multiple metrics, ’said Murali Doraiswamy, a co-author of the study. (‘我们的研究表明,在轻度认知障碍的人群中,填字游戏在多个指标上都胜过电脑游戏,’该研究的合著者穆拉利·多雷斯瓦米(Murali Doraiswamy)说。)”可推知填字游戏的效果与认知障碍的严重程度有关。故选D。
34.细节理解题。根据最后一段“More years of follow-up also are needed to determine whether interventions such as crossword puzzles can “truly prevent dementia,” Doraiswamy said. (Doraiswamy说,还需要更多年的随访来确定填字游戏等干预措施是否能“真正预防痴呆”。)”可知还需要更多年的随访来确定填字游戏等干预措施是否能“真正预防痴呆”,也就是时间不足,故选C。
第二节(共 5 小题;每小题 2 分,共 10 分)
根据短文内容,从短文后的七个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。选项中有两项为多余选项。
The moment any birdwatcher spots a striking and unfamiliar bird, the first thing they do is to pull out a phone and identify the species. This suggests curiosity is all about acting now. It drives us to find answers as soon as possible. The impatience for answers mirrors what psychologists think is a main function of curiosity: to reduce uncertainty. 35 In a recent study, scientists have found that it can also inspire more patience, setting people up for those moments of discovery.
They asked more than 2,000 people aged 19 to 76 years to watch a series of short videos. Each video started with a blank(空白的) screen. 36 While the participants watched each video, the scientists would ask them how curious they were about what the drawing would become. They also made guesses about what the drawing was going to turn into and how much joy or annoyance they felt. Interestingly, when participants were more curious, they were more likely to continue watching. 37 The experiment also revealed that as people watched the video, curiosity would change across the journey. Yet regardless of how curiosity changed, people with greater curiosity tend to engage in the process.
38 First, it underlines the complexity of curiosity, opening new paths for research to explore its varieties. It also highlights the significance of engaging with uncertainty: Having to consider and predict answers can improve learning and memory, and curiosity can promote brain states that help us store new information. Learning new things can be challenging. 39
A.But this picture of curiosity is incomplete.
B.However, curiosity makes people eager for knowledge.
C.The possible effects of the research are really impressive.
D.So when uncertainty was greatest, curiosity was experienced with joy.
E.A line would then appear and move around, gradually taking a shape.
F.In other words, higher curiosity motivated people to slow down and be patient.
G.However, making good use of curiosity can help us enjoy the process of learning.
【参考答案】35.A 36.E 37.F 38.C 39.G
【语篇解读】本文为一篇说明文。文章介绍了一项关于好奇心的研究,它强调了好奇心的复杂性。好奇心可以促进大脑状态,帮助我们储存新信息。我们要充分利用好奇心可以帮助我们享受学习的过程。

35.根据上文“The moment any birdwatcher spots a striking and unfamiliar bird, the first thing they do is to pull out a phone and identify the species. This suggests curiosity is all about acting now. It drives us to find answers as soon as possible. The impatience for answers mirrors what psychologists think is a main function of curiosity: to reduce uncertainty. (任何观鸟者一旦发现一只令人震惊的陌生鸟,他们要做的第一件事就是拿出手机,识别它的种类。这表明好奇心就是现在就行动。它驱使我们尽快找到答案。对答案的不耐烦反映了心理学家认为好奇心的主要功能:减少不确定性。)”可知,空格处需要进一步说明好奇心,总结尽快找到答案存在的缺点。选项A. But this picture of curiosity is incomplete. (但这种好奇心的图景是不完整的。)与上文形成转折关系;能够承接上文。故选A。
36.根据上文“Each video started with a blank(空白的) screen. (每个视频都以空白屏幕开始。)”以及下文“While the participants watched each video, the scientists would ask them how curious they were about what the drawing would become.

37.根据上文“Interestingly, when participants were more curious, they were more likely to continue watching. (有趣的是,当参与者更好奇时,他们更有可能继续观看。)”以及下文“The experiment also revealed that as people watched the video, curiosity would change across the journey. Yet regardless of how curiosity changed, people with greater curiosity tend to engage in the process. (实验还显示,当人们观看视频时,好奇心会在整个过程中发生变化。然而,不管好奇心如何变化,好奇心更强的人往往会参与到这个过程中来。)”可知,空格处继续说明好奇心对于人们的作用。选项F. In other words, higher curiosity motivated people to slow down and be patient. (换句话说,更高的好奇心促使人们放慢脚步,保持耐心。)中的“放慢脚步,保持耐心”与上文中的“他们可能继续观看”相呼应;且与下文中“好奇心更强的人往往会参与到这个过程中来”相呼应;能够承上启下。故选F。
38.根据下文“First, it underlines the complexity of curiosity, opening new paths for research to explore its varieties. It also highlights the significance of engaging with uncertainty: Having to consider and predict answers can improve learning and memory, and curiosity can promote brain states that help us store new information. (首先,它强调了好奇心的复杂性,为探索好奇心的多样性开辟了新的研究途径。它还强调了与不确定性接触的重要性:必须考虑和预测答案可以提高学习和记忆能力,好奇心可以促进大脑状态,帮助我们储存新信息。)”可知,空格处需要填入主题句,说明的是研究的影响作用。选项C. The possible effects of the research are really impressive. (这项研究可能产生的影响确实令人印象深刻。),说明的是这些研究给人深刻的影响,能够作为本段的主题句,引出下文。故选C。
39.根据上文“Learning new things can be challenging. (学习新事物是很有挑战性的。)”以及本文的主题好奇心,可知,空格处需要进一步说明学习与好奇心的关系。选项G. However, making good use of curiosity can help us enjoy the process of learning. (然而,充分利用好奇心可以帮助我们享受学习的过程。)说明的是如何利用好奇心来学习,上文中的“Learning new things”与“the process of learning”相呼应;与上文形成转折关系,选项G能够承接上文,总结全文。故选G。

The Land of Smiles: A Beginners Guide to Etiquette (礼仪) in Thailand
To: JohnnyBoy0303@hotmail.com
Sender: Farang555@gmail.com
Subject: RE: I’m coming to Thailand! ! !
Hey Johnny!
Great news about your visit to Thailand. I shall roll out the red carpet for your arrival! I’m still having a great time here. It’s difficult to work in this heat, but the people here are so kind, and life is generally quite relaxed, so it beats another rainy winter in Scotland. About your questions:
1. Yes, you should learn a little bit of Thai if you can! It’s not an easy language to speak or read, but a little effort will go a long way. Thais are really respectful people. When they greet you, they’ll usually put both of their hands together, and bow their head a little bit. If anyone does it to you, it’s very important that you do it back.
2. Yes, the food is spicy! But it’s so delicious. Thais use a lot of exotic ingredients like coconut, lemongrass, and lime leaves when they’re cooking, so you get some really rich flavours. Actually, I think I never want to eat British food again after living here! Don’t worry—you’re going to love it, and it’s cheap too!
3. Yes, there are a few things to be aware of. Firstly, Thais look at the head as being sacred, so don’t go around patting people on the head, not even kids. The head is the highest part of the body, and the feet are the lowest, so guess what? Don’t do things with your feet. I know it sounds stupid, but just be careful that you’re not pointing your feet at people or kicking them to get their attention or anything like that, and definitely do not put your feet up on tables or chairs—it will be considered very rude.
I think it’s very important to remember that Thais love their royal family too, so you should be respectful towards that. Once, my friend and I were visiting Bangkok, and he dropped a coin, I stamped on it to stop it rolling, and some people seemed quite angry, and we couldn’t work out why. A hotel staff explained to us: Putting my foot on the coin was like stamping on a picture of the king! We told the hotel staff how sorry we were. I think it’s really important to be aware of these things that might mean a lot to other people even though you would never think of them yourself.
Anyway, don’t worry too much. Just be polite and respectful. You’ll have a great time here.
Looking forward to seeing you in the Land of Smiles!
Archie
40.What does the writer feel about Thailand?
41.According to the third answer in Archie’s email, please write down the question that Johnny might ask.
42.Please decide which part is false in the following statement, then underline it and explain why.
Some Thais seemed quite angry when seeing the writer use his foot to stop the coin rolling because it wouldn’t work.
43.Suppose Johnny is coming to China. He is curious about etiquette in China and asks you for help. Please write 1 or 2 tips for him. (In about 40 words)
【参考答案】
40. He feels that the people are friendly and life is relaxed there.
41.Are there any items that require special attention in Thailand? What are they?
42.Some Thais seemed quite angry when seeing the writer use his foot to stop the coin rolling because it wouldn’t work.
The underlined part is false, because putting one’s foot on the coin was like stamping on a picture of the king, and they love their royal family.
43.Now let me tell you something about etiquette in China. When eating, everyone should move their chopsticks together. Don’t pick up your chopsticks first and eat on your own. Don’t babble or make strange noises when eating and don’t speak with your mouth full of food.
【语篇解读】这是一篇应用文。作者在信中为朋友本文为朋友介绍了有关泰国的语言、饮食和习俗的一些问题。
【详情解析】
40.考查细节理解。根据第一段中“I’m still having a great time here. It’s difficult to work in this heat, but the people here are so kind, and life is generally quite relaxed, so it beats another rainy winter in Scotland. (我在这里仍然过得很愉快。在这么热的天气里工作很困难,但这里的人很友善,生活一般都很轻松,所以这比苏格兰又一个多雨的冬天要好。)”可知,作者感觉泰国人民友善,生活轻松。故答案为He feels that the people are friendly and life is relaxed there.
41.考查推理判断。根据第三个回答中“Yes, there are a few things to be aware of. (是的,有几件事需要注意。)”可知,Johnny可能会问的问题是:在泰国是不是有些需要特别注意的,都有哪些?故答案为Are there any items that require special attention in Thailand? What are they?
42.考查细节理解。根据倒数第三段中“I think it’s very important to remember that Thais love their royal family too, so you should be respectful towards that. (我认为重要的是要记住泰国人也爱他们的王室,所以你应该尊重他们。)”和“Once, my friend and I were visiting Bangkok, and he dropped a coin, I stamped on it to stop it rolling, and some people seemed quite angry, and we couldn’t work out why. A hotel staff explained to us: Putting my foot on the coin was like stamping on a picture of the king! (有一次,我和朋友去曼谷旅游,他掉了一枚硬币,我踩着它不让它滚,一些人看起来很生气,我们不知道为什么。一位酒店工作人员向我们解释说:把我的脚踩在硬币上就像踩在国王的画像上一样!我们向酒店员工表示了歉意。)”可知,当看到作者用脚阻止硬币滚动时,一些泰国人似乎很生气,是因为脚踩在硬币上就像踩在国王的画像上一样,他们爱他们的王室。故答案为Some Thais seemed quite angry when seeing the writer use his foot to stop the coin rolling because it wouldn’t work. The underlined part is false, because putting one’s foot on the coin was like stamping on a picture of the king, and they love their royal family.
43.考查阅读写作。阅读可知,本文为朋友介绍了有关泰国的语言、饮食和习俗。按要求给Johnny写1 - 2条有关中国礼仪的建议。故答案为Now let me tell you something about etiquette in China. When eating, everyone should move their chopsticks together. Don’t pick up your chopsticks first and eat on your own. Don’t babble or make strange noises when eating and don’t speak with your mouth full of food.
