Zones (区域) The library is divided into different zones. The upper floor is a quiet zone with over a thousand places for silent reading, and places where you can sit and work with your own computer. The reading places consist mostly of tables and chairs. The ground floor is the zone where you can talk. Here you can find sofas and armchairs for group work. Computers You can use your own computer to connect to the Wi-Fi specially prepared for notebook computers. You can also use library computers, which contain the most commonly used applications, such as Microsoft Office. They are situated in the area known as the Experimental Field on the ground floor. Group-study Places If you want to discuss freely without disturbing others, you can book a study room or sit at a table on the ground floor. Some study rooms are for 2-3 people and others can hold up to 6-8 people. All rooms are marked on the library maps. There are 40 group-study rooms that must be booked via the website. To book, you need an active University account and a valid University card. You can use a room three hours per day; nine hours at most per week. Storage of Study Material The library has lockers for students to store course literature. When you have received at least 40 credits (学分), you may rent a locker and pay 400 SEK for a year's rental period. Rules to Be Followed Mobile phone conversations are not permitted anywhere in the library. Keep your phone on silent as if you were in a lecture and exit the library if you need to receive calls.

(要预订，您需要一个活跃的大学账户和有效的大学卡。)” 可知，预订小组学习室需要有效的大学账户和校园卡，即需先在大学注册。故选A。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。 根据Storage of Study Material部分中的“When you have received at least 40 credits (学分), you may rent a locker and pay 400 SEK for a year's rental period. (当你获得至少40个学分时，你可以租用一个储物柜，并支付400瑞典克朗一年的租赁期。)” 可知，学生需获得规定学分才能租用储物柜。故选B。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据Rules to Be Followed部分中的“Please note that food and fruit are not permitted in the library, but you are allowed to have drinks and sweets with you. (请注意，图书馆不允许携带食物和水果，但允许携带饮料和糖果。)”可知，食物（如三明治）不允许带入图书馆。故选B。 B In the kitchen of my mother’s houses there has always been a wooden stand (木架) with a small notepad (记事本) and a hole for a pencil. I’m looking for paper on which to note down the name of a book I am recommending to my mother. Over forty years since my earliest memories of the kitchen pad and pencil, five houses later, the current paper and pencil look the same as they always did. Surely it can’t be the same pencil. The pad is more modern, but the wooden stand is definitely the original one. “I’m just amazed you still have the same stand for holding the pad and pencil after all these years.” I say to her, walking back into the living-room with a sheet of paper and the pencil. “You still use a pencil. Can’t you afford a pen?” My mother replies a little sharply. “It works perfectly well. I’ve always kept the stand in the kitchen. I never knew when I might want to note down an idea, and I was always in the kitchen in those days.” Immediately I can picture her, hair wild, blue housecoat covered in flour, a wooden spoon in one hand, the pencil in the other, her mouth moving silently. My mother smiles and says, “One day I was cooking and watching baby Pauline, and I had a brilliant (绝妙的) thought, but the stand was empty. One of the children must have taken the paper. So I just picked up the breadboard and wrote it all down on the back.” It turned out to be a real breakthrough in solving the mathematical problem I was working on. This story — which happened before I was born — reminds me how extraordinary my mother was, and is, as a gifted mathematician. I feel embarrassed (惭愧) that I complain about not having enough time to work. Later, when my mother is in the bathroom, I go into her kitchen and turn over the breadboard. Sure enough, on the back of the smallest one, are some penciled marks I recognize as mathematics. Those symbols have traveled unaffected through fifty years, rooted in the soil of a cheap wooden breadboard, invisible (看不到的) exhibits at every meal. 5. What is the author’s original opinion about the wooden stand? A. It should be passed on to the next generation. B. It brings her back to her lonely childhood. C. It needs to be replaced by a better one. D. It has great value for the family. 6 Why has the author’s mother always kept the notepad and pencil in the kitchen? A. To write down a flash of inspiration. B. To note down maths problems. C. To list her everyday tasks. D. To leave messages. 7. The author feels embarrassed for ______. A. giving her mother a lot of trouble B. not praising her mother C. not making any progress in her work D. not making good use of time as her mother did 8. What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A. The family members like traveling. B. The mother is successful in her field. C. The marks on the breadboard have disappeared. D. The author had little time to play when young. 【答案】5. C 6. A 7. D 8. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者回忆母亲厨房里的木架、记事本和铅笔，以及母亲利用这些工具记录灵感的故事。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“I’m just amazed you still have the same stand for holding the pad and pencil after all these years.(这么多年过去了，你还在用同一个架子放记事本和铅笔，我真是太惊讶了)”可推断，作者最初认为这个木架应该被更好的替换掉。故选 C。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段中“I never knew when I might want to note down an idea, and I was always in the kitchen in those days.(我从来不知道什么时候会想记下一个想法，而那些日子我总是在厨房里)”可知，作者的母亲总是把记事本和铅笔放在厨房里是为了记录下突然的灵感。故选A。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“I feel embarrassed (惭愧) that I complain about not having enough time to work. Later, when my mother is in the bathroom, I go into her kitchen and turn over the breadboard. Sure enough, on the back of the smallest one, are some penciled marks I recognize as mathematics. Those symbols have traveled unaffected through fifty years, rooted in the soil of a cheap wooden breadboard, invisible (看不到的) exhibits at every meal.(我为自己抱怨没有足够的时间工作而感到惭愧。后来，母亲去浴室的时候，我走进她的厨房，翻过切菜板。果然，在最小的一块切菜板背面，有一些用铅笔写下的、我能认出是数学符号的标记。这些符号历经五十年依然完好无损，它们扎根于一块廉价木制切菜板的“土壤”中，在每一顿饭时都作为看不见的展品存在着)”可知，作者感到惭愧是因为没有像母亲那样充分利用时间。故选D。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“This story — which happened before I was born — reminds me how extraordinary my mother was, and is, as a gifted mathematician.(这个故事发生在我出生之前，它让我想起我的母亲作为一位天才数学家是多么的不平凡)”可推知，作者的母亲在她的领域很成功。故选B。 C The connection between people and plants has long been the subject of scientific research. Recent studies have found positive effects. A study conducted in Youngstown, Ohio, for example, discovered that greener areas of the city experienced less crime (犯罪). In another, employees (雇员) were shown to be 15% more productive when their workplaces were decorated with houseplants. The engineers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have taken it a step further — changing the actual composition of plants in order to get them to perform diverse, even unusual functions. These include plants that have sensors (探测器) printed onto their leaves to show when they're short of water and a plant that can detect (探测) harmful chemicals in groundwater. “We're thinking about how we can engineer plants to replace functions of the things that we use every day, ”explained Michael Strano, a professor of chemical engineering at MIT. One of his latest projects has been to make plants glow (发光) in experiments using some common vegetables. Strano's team found that they could create a faint light for three-and-a-half hours. The light, about one-thousandth of the amount needed to read by, is just a start. The technology, Strano said, could one day be used to light the rooms or even to turn trees into self-powered street lamps. In the future, the team hopes to develop a version of the technology that can be sprayed onto plant leaves in a one-off treatment that would last the plant's lifetime. The engineers are also trying to develop an on-and-off "switch" where the glow would fade (逐渐消失) when exposed to daylight. Lighting accounts for about 7% of the total electricity used in the US. Since lighting is often far removed from the power source — such as the distance from a power plant to street lamps on a remote highway — a lot of energy is lost during transmission (传输). Glowing plants could reduce this distance and therefore help save energy. 9. What is the first paragraph mainly about? A. A big fall in crime rates. B. Benefits from green plants. C. A new study of different plants. D. Employees from various workplaces. 10. What is the function of the sensors printed on plant leaves by MIT engineers? A. To make the life of plants longer. B. To change compositions of plants. C. To test chemicals in plants. D. To detect plants’ lack of water. 11. What might we expect of glowing plants in the future? A. They might help reduce energy use. B. They could take the place of power plants. C. They may transmit electricity to the home. D. They will speed up energy production. 【答案】9. B 10. D 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了人与植物关系的科学研究成果，以及科学家对植物进行技术改造的探索和应用前景。 【9题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“The connection between people and plants has long been the subject of scientific research. Recent studies have found positive effects. A study conducted in Youngstown, Ohio, for example, discovered that greener areas of the city experienced less crime (犯罪). In another, employees (雇员) were shown to be 15% more productive when their workplaces were decorated with houseplants. (人与植物之间的关系一直是科学研究的主题。最近的研究发现了积极的影响。例如，在俄亥俄州扬斯敦进行的一项研究发现，城市绿化区域的犯罪率较低。在另一项研究中，当雇员的工作场所装饰有室内植物时，他们的工作效率会提高15%。)”可知，第一段通过两个例子（城市绿化区犯罪率更低、工作场所摆放植物提升员工效率），说明绿色植物带来的积极影响，核心是“植物的益处”。故选B。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“These include plants that have sensors (探测器) printed onto their leaves to show when they're short of water and a plant that can detect (探测) harmful chemicals in groundwater. (其中包括在叶子上印上传感器的植物，当它们缺水时可以显示，还有一种植物可以检测地下水中的有害化学物质。)” 可知，叶子上的传感器用于检测植物是否缺水。故选D。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Lighting accounts for about 7% of the total electricity used in the US. Since lighting is often far removed from the power source — such as the distance from a power plant to street lamps on a remote highway — a lot of energy is lost during transmission (传输). Glowing plants could reduce this distance and therefore help save energy. (照明约占美国总用电量的7%。由于照明通常远离电源——比如从发电厂到偏远高速公路上的路灯的距离——大量的能量在传输过程中损失掉了。发光植物可以缩短这一距离，从而有助于节约能源。)”可知，照明消耗大量电力，且能源在传输中损耗大，而发光植物可缩短与电源的距离。由此可推断，未来发光植物可能有助于减少能源使用。故选A。 D Popularization has in some cases changed the original meaning of emotional intelligence. Many people now misunderstand emotional intelligence as almost everything desirable in a person's makeup that cannot be measured by an IQ test, such as character, motivation, confidence, mental stability, optimism and “people skills.” Research has shown that emotional skills may contribute to some of these qualities, but most of them move far beyond skill-based emotional intelligence. We prefer to describe emotional intelligence as a specific set of skills that can be used for either good or bad purposes. The ability to accurately understand how others are feeling may be used by a doctor to find how best to help her patients, while a cheater might use it to control potential victims (受害者). Being emotionally intelligent does not necessarily make one a moral person. Although popular beliefs regarding emotional intelligence run far ahead of what research can reasonably support, the overall effects of the publicity have been more beneficial than harmful. The most positive aspect of this popularization is a new and much needed emphasis (重视) on emotion by employers, educators and others interested in promoting social well-being. The popularization of emotional intelligence has helped both the public and researchers re-evaluate the functionality of emotions and how they serve people adaptively in everyday life. Although the continuing popular appeal (吸引力) of emotional intelligence is desirable, we hope that such attention will excite a greater interest in the scientific and scholarly study of emotion. It is our hope that in coming decades, advances in science will offer new perspectives (视角) from which to study how people manage their lives. Emotional intelligence, with its focus on both head and heart, may serve to point us in the right direction. 12. What is a common misunderstanding of emotional intelligence? A. It helps to exercise a person's mind. B. It can be measured by an IQ test. C. It refers to a person's positive qualities. D. It includes a set of emotional skills. 13. What is the author's attitude to the popularization of emotional intelligence? A. Unbearable. B. Doubtful. C. Unclear. D. Supportive. 14. What does the last paragraph mainly talk about concerning emotional intelligence? A. Expectations for future studies. B. Scientists with new perspectives. C. Its appeal to the public. D. Its practical application. 【答案】12. C 13. D 14. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文，文章围绕情商普及现状、常见误解及未来研究方向展开论述，表达了作者对情商相关问题的观点。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Many people now misunderstand emotional intelligence as almost everything desirable in a person's makeup that cannot be measured by an IQ test, such as character, motivation, confidence, mental stability, optimism and “people skills.” (现在很多人把情商误解为一个人身上几乎所有无法通过智商测试来衡量的特质，比如性格、动力、自信、精神稳定、乐观和“人际交往能力”。)”可知，人们普遍将情商误解为一个人身上那些无法用智商测试衡量的积极品质（如性格、动力、自信等）。故选C。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。 根据第三段“Although popular beliefs regarding emotional intelligence run far ahead of what research can reasonably support, the overall effects of the publicity have been more beneficial than harmful. The most positive aspect of this popularization is a new and much needed emphasis (重视) on emotion by employers, educators and others interested in promoting social well-being. (尽管关于情商的流行观点远远超出了研究所能合理支持的范围，但宣传的总体效果利大于弊。这种普及最积极的方面是雇主、教育工作者和其他对促进社会福祉感兴趣的人对情感的新的和急需的重视。)”可见作者对情商的普及持支持态度。故选D。 【14题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段“It is our hope that in coming decades, advances in science will offer new perspectives (视角) from which to study how people manage their lives. Emotional intelligence, with its focus on both head and heart, may serve to point us in the right direction. (我们希望，在未来的几十年里，科学的进步将为研究人们如何管理自己的生活提供新的视角。情商既关注头脑也关注心灵，它可以为我们指明正确的方向。)”可知最后一段表达了作者对情商未来相关科学研究的期待，故选A。 第二部分：知识运用（共三节，40分） 第一节（共10小题；每小题1.5分，共15分） 阅读下面短文,掌握其大意，从每题所给的 A、B、C、D 四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 On August 26, 1999, New York City was struck by a terrible rainstorm during the morning rush hour.

He believes bus drivers are the eyes and ears of students when they’re away from home and they have a gift to know what kids are feeling. During one morning ride, Cruse noticed a kindergartner seemed a little sad. When Cruse asked him what was wrong, the boy explained that he wasn’t able to complete his reading assignment (任务) because his parents were busy with his four siblings (兄弟姐妹). An idea suddenly crossed Cruse's mind. “Listen, if you don't mind, I'd like to come to the school and read with you,” he said. After receiving permission from the boy’s teacher, Alex Bakley, Cruse showed up at her classroom the following week. When he walked in, the boy shouted proudly, “Hey, that’s my bus driver!” They went into a quiet corner and began reading together. Later, a second student wanted to read with him, then a third. All the kids went to the teacher asking, “Can I read with Mr. Herman?” Cruse now volunteers to help kindergarten students with reading two days a week, and on a third day, he instructs the school’s first-and second-graders, after dropping the kids off at school, of course. Every child looks up to Cruse, both on and off the school bus. “Herman is super positive and he's a bright light at our school who makes every child feel loved and heard,” said Bakley. For Cruse, what started out as a way to kill time has now developed into a way to make a difference in the heart of a child. He used to go to the gym or library after delivering students to schools. It wasn’t until he offered to help the boy on the bus that he realized there was something more rewarding (值得的) he could be doing. It’s a joy for him to see the kids get excited when they learn to sound out words. He loves how reading opens up a new world for them. 45. Why did the boy on the bus look a little upset? ________________________________________________________________________________ 46. Why does Cruse think his voluntary work is rewarding according to the last paragraph? ________________________________________________________________________________ 47. Please decide which part is false in the following statement, then underline it and explain why.  Cruse came into the classroom to read with the boy after receiving the teacher’s permission, but the other children didn’t seem to welcome it. ________________________________________________________________________________ 48. Who’s “a bright light” in your life? Please explain in your own words. (In about 40 words) ________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】45.

Cruse came into the classroom to read with the boy after receiving the teacher’s permission, but the other children didn’t seem to welcome it. The other children welcomed it because all the kids went to the teacher asking, “Can I read with Mr. Herman?” 48. My English teacher is a beacon in my life. Whenever I encounter difficulties, he is always here to understand me, laugh with me, cry with me, plan with me, talk with me, and think with me. He is always here to love me. 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。讲述了新泽西州的一名校车司机赫尔曼·克鲁斯，过去九年里一直在中部乡镇公立学校工作，引领孩子们阅读的故事。 【45题详解】 考查细节理解。根据第二段中“During one morning ride, Cruse noticed a kindergartner seemed a little sad. When Cruse asked him what was wrong, the boy explained that he wasn’t able to complete his reading assignment (任务) because his parents were busy with his four siblings (兄弟姐妹). (一天早上，克鲁斯在骑车的时候，注意到一个幼儿园小朋友看起来有点伤心。克鲁斯问他怎么了，男孩解释说他没能完成阅读作业，因为他的父母忙于照顾他的四个兄弟姐妹。)”可知，因为他没能完成阅读作业，所以他有点儿伤心。故答案为Because he wasn’t able to complete his reading assignment. 【46题详解】 考查细节理解。根据最后一段中“It wasn’t until he offered to help the boy on the bus that he realized there was something more rewarding (值得的) he could be doing. It’s a joy for him to see the kids get excited when they learn to sound out words. He loves how reading opens up a new world for them. (直到他主动提出在公共汽车上帮助那个男孩，他才意识到自己可以做一些更有意义的事情。对他来说，看到孩子们在学习念单词时变得兴奋是一件乐事。他喜欢阅读为他们打开一个新世界。)”可知，因为当孩子们学会念单词时，他们会感到兴奋，而阅读为他们打开了一个新的世界，所以克鲁斯为什么认为他的志愿工作是有收获的。故答案为Because the kids get excited when they learn to sound out words and reading opens up a new world for them. 【47题详解】 考查细节理解。根据第三段中“All the kids went to the teacher asking, “Can I read with Mr. Herman?”(所有的孩子都去问老师：“我能和赫尔曼先生一起读书吗？”)”可知，其他孩子都很欢迎，因为所有的孩子都去问老师：“我能和赫尔曼先生一起读书吗？”。故答案为Cruse came into the classroom to read with the boy after receiving the teacher’s permission, but the other children didn’t seem to welcome it. The other children welcomed it because all the kids went to the teacher asking, “Can I read with Mr. Herman?” 【48题详解】 考查阅读表达。通读全文，尤其根据倒数第二段中““Herman is super positive and he's a bright light at our school who makes every child feel loved and heard,” said Bakley. (巴克利说：“赫尔曼非常积极，他是我们学校一盏明灯，让每个孩子都感到被爱和被倾听。”)”可知，“我生活中的一盏明灯”表示一个对自己有无私的爱的人，参考答案如下：我的英语老师是我生活中的一盏明灯，每当我遇到困难，他总是在这里理解我，和我一起笑，和我一起哭，和我一起计划，和我一起谈心，和我一起思考，他总是在这里爱着我。故答案为My English teacher is a beacon in my life. Whenever I encounter difficulties, he is always here to understand me, laugh with me, cry with me, plan with me, talk with me, and think with me. He is always here to love me. 第二节（20分） 49. 假设你是红星中学高一学生李华，你的英国笔友Jim对中国书法很感兴趣，得知你参加了学校书法社团，他发来邮件想了解相关情况。请你回复邮件，内容包括： 1.介绍中国书法及你们社团的活动； 2.谈谈你的收获。 注意：1. 词数100左右； 2. 开头和结尾已给出，不计入总词数。 Dear Jim, ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours, Li Hua 【答案】Dear Jim, How is everything?

Zones (区域) The library is divided into different zones. The upper floor is a quiet zone with over a thousand places for silent reading, and places where you can sit and work with your own computer. The reading places consist mostly of tables and chairs. The ground floor is the zone where you can talk. Here you can find sofas and armchairs for group work. Computers You can use your own computer to connect to the Wi-Fi specially prepared for notebook computers. You can also use library computers, which contain the most commonly used applications, such as Microsoft Office. They are situated in the area known as the Experimental Field on the ground floor. Group-study Places If you want to discuss freely without disturbing others, you can book a study room or sit at a table on the ground floor. Some study rooms are for 2-3 people and others can hold up to 6-8 people. All rooms are marked on the library maps. There are 40 group-study rooms that must be booked via the website. To book, you need an active University account and a valid University card. You can use a room three hours per day; nine hours at most per week. Storage of Study Material The library has lockers for students to store course literature. When you have received at least 40 credits (学分), you may rent a locker and pay 400 SEK for a year's rental period. Rules to Be Followed Mobile phone conversations are not permitted anywhere in the library. Keep your phone on silent as if you were in a lecture and exit the library if you need to receive calls.

What should NOT be brought into the library? A. Candy. B. Sandwiches. C Orange juice. D. Mobile phones. B In the kitchen of my mother’s houses there has always been a wooden stand (木架) with a small notepad (记事本) and a hole for a pencil. I’m looking for paper on which to note down the name of a book I am recommending to my mother. Over forty years since my earliest memories of the kitchen pad and pencil, five houses later, the current paper and pencil look the same as they always did. Surely it can’t be the same pencil. The pad is more modern, but the wooden stand is definitely the original one. “I’m just amazed you still have the same stand for holding the pad and pencil after all these years.” I say to her, walking back into the living-room with a sheet of paper and the pencil. “You still use a pencil. Can’t you afford a pen?” My mother replies a little sharply. “It works perfectly well. I’ve always kept the stand in the kitchen. I never knew when I might want to note down an idea and I was always in the kitchen in those days.” Immediately I can picture her, hair wild, blue housecoat covered in flour, a wooden spoon in one hand, the pencil in the other, her mouth moving silently. My mother smiles and says, “One day I was cooking and watching baby Pauline, and I had a brilliant (绝妙的) thought, but the stand was empty. One of the children must have taken the paper. So I just picked up the breadboard and wrote it all down on the back.” It turned out to be a real breakthrough in solving the mathematical problem I was working on. This story — which happened before I was born — reminds me how extraordinary my mother was, and is, as a gifted mathematician. I feel embarrassed (惭愧) that I complain about not having enough time to work. Later, when my mother is in the bathroom, I go into her kitchen and turn over the breadboard. Sure enough, on the back of the smallest one, are some penciled marks I recognize as mathematics. Those symbols have traveled unaffected through fifty years, rooted in the soil of a cheap wooden breadboard, invisible (看不到的) exhibits at every meal. 5. What is the author’s original opinion about the wooden stand? A It should be passed on to the next generation. B. It brings her back to her lonely childhood. C. It needs to be replaced by a better one. D. It has great value for the family. 6. Why has the author’s mother always kept the notepad and pencil in the kitchen? A. To write down a flash of inspiration. B. To note down maths problems. C. To list her everyday tasks. D. To leave messages. 7. The author feels embarrassed for ______. A. giving her mother a lot of trouble B. not praising her mother C not making any progress in her work D. not making good use of time as her mother did 8. What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A. The family members like traveling. B. The mother is successful in her field. C. The marks on the breadboard have disappeared. D. The author had little time to play when young. C The connection between people and plants has long been the subject of scientific research. Recent studies have found positive effects. A study conducted in Youngstown, Ohio, for example, discovered that greener areas of the city experienced less crime (犯罪). In another, employees (雇员) were shown to be 15% more productive when their workplaces were decorated with houseplants. The engineers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have taken it a step further — changing the actual composition of plants in order to get them to perform diverse, even unusual functions. These include plants that have sensors (探测器) printed onto their leaves to show when they're short of water and a plant that can detect (探测) harmful chemicals in groundwater. “We're thinking about how we can engineer plants to replace functions of the things that we use every day, ”explained Michael Strano, a professor of chemical engineering at MIT. One of his latest projects has been to make plants glow (发光) in experiments using some common vegetables. Strano's team found that they could create a faint light for three-and-a-half hours. The light, about one-thousandth of the amount needed to read by, is just a start. The technology, Strano said, could one day be used to light the rooms or even to turn trees into self-powered street lamps. In the future, the team hopes to develop a version of the technology that can be sprayed onto plant leaves in a one-off treatment that would last the plant's lifetime. The engineers are also trying to develop an on-and-off "switch" where the glow would fade (逐渐消失) when exposed to daylight. Lighting accounts for about 7% of the total electricity used in the US. Since lighting is often far removed from the power source — such as the distance from a power plant to street lamps on a remote highway — a lot of energy is lost during transmission (传输). Glowing plants could reduce this distance and therefore help save energy. 9. What is the first paragraph mainly about? A. A big fall in crime rates. B. Benefits from green plants. C. A new study of different plants. D. Employees from various workplaces. 10. What is the function of the sensors printed on plant leaves by MIT engineers? A. To make the life of plants longer. B. To change compositions of plants. C. To test chemicals in plants. D. To detect plants’ lack of water. 11. What might we expect of glowing plants in the future? A. They might help reduce energy use. B. They could take the place of power plants. C. They may transmit electricity to the home. D. They will speed up energy production. D Popularization has in some cases changed the original meaning of emotional intelligence. Many people now misunderstand emotional intelligence as almost everything desirable in a person's makeup that cannot be measured by an IQ test, such as character, motivation, confidence, mental stability, optimism and “people skills.” Research has shown that emotional skills may contribute to some of these qualities, but most of them move far beyond skill-based emotional intelligence. We prefer to describe emotional intelligence as a specific set of skills that can be used for either good or bad purposes. The ability to accurately understand how others are feeling may be used by a doctor to find how best to help her patients, while a cheater might use it to control potential victims (受害者). Being emotionally intelligent does not necessarily make one a moral person. Although popular beliefs regarding emotional intelligence run far ahead of what research can reasonably support, the overall effects of the publicity have been more beneficial than harmful. The most positive aspect of this popularization is a new and much needed emphasis (重视) on emotion by employers, educators and others interested in promoting social well-being. The popularization of emotional intelligence has helped both the public and researchers re-evaluate the functionality of emotions and how they serve people adaptively in everyday life. Although the continuing popular appeal (吸引力) of emotional intelligence is desirable, we hope that such attention will excite a greater interest in the scientific and scholarly study of emotion. It is our hope that in coming decades, advances in science will offer new perspectives (视角) from which to study how people manage their lives. Emotional intelligence, with its focus on both head and heart, may serve to point us in the right direction. 12. What is a common misunderstanding of emotional intelligence? A. It helps to exercise a person's mind. B. It can be measured by an IQ test. C. It refers to a person's positive qualities. D. It includes a set of emotional skills. 13. What is the author's attitude to the popularization of emotional intelligence? A. Unbearable. B. Doubtful. C. Unclear. D. Supportive. 14. What does the last paragraph mainly talk about concerning emotional intelligence? A. Expectations for future studies. B. Scientists with new perspectives. C. Its appeal to the public. D. Its practical application. 第二部分：知识运用（共三节，40分） 第一节（共10小题；每小题1.5分，共15分） 阅读下面短文,掌握其大意，从每题所给的 A、B、C、D 四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 On August 26, 1999, New York City was struck by a terrible rainstorm during the morning rush hour.
