Most people want themselves to be happy forever, but few know how to find happiness. Others say if you own lots of money and success, you will be happy. However, money and success alone do not bring lasting happiness. A famous Greek thinker, Aristotle, said, “Happiness depends on (取决于) ourselves.” That’s to say, we make our own happiness. Here are a few suggestions to help you be happier.
The first secret of happiness is to enjoy the simple things in life. Too often, we spend so much time thinking about the future. For example, getting into college or getting a good job, which makes us fail to enjoy the present. You should enjoy life’s simple pleasures, such as reading a good book, listening to your favorite music, or spending time with close friends. If you live with a few close friends, you will feel happier and healthier.
Another secret of living a happy life is to be active. Many people go dancing or do sports. People can forget about their problems and only think about the activities.
Finally, many people find happiness in helping others. Studies show that people feel good when they spend their time helping others. If you want to feel happier, you can do good things for someone. You can help a friend with his or her studies, go shopping or help out with some things around the house for an elderly person. If you can do that, you will feel happy.
46. According to Paragraph 1, what should we do if we want to have lasting happiness?
A. Try to make much money. B. Try to be successful.
C. Make a lot of friends. D. Make our own happiness.
47. If you want to enjoy the simple things in life, what should you do?
①listen to my favorite music ②read a good book
③have a good meal ④spend time with close friends
A. ①② B. ①②④ C. ②③④ D. ①②③
48. How many suggestions of happiness are mentioned in this passage?
A. Two. B. Three. C. Four. D. Five.
49. According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT true?
A. Helping others can make people feel good.
B. To feel happier, you can help an elderly person.
C. Active persons may live a happier life than others.
D. Thinking about the future can help you enjoy the present.
50. What’s the main idea of this passage?
A. How to live a happy life. B. How to get a good job.
C. How to help the old people. D. How to depend on ourselves.
B
On November 13, Emergency (紧急情况) dispatcher (调度员)Tim Teneyck received a very special call from a girl who wanted to order a pizza. “You called 911 to order a pizza?” Tim asked. “This is the wrong number to call for a pizza.” But when the girl gave Tim more information about her apartment, everything became clear. She didn’t want a pizza. She needed help! But she couldn’t tell him that directly because she wasn’t in a safe place.
After asking a few more questions, Tim said to the girl, “I’m getting you now.” As it turned out, the girl was in an apartment with a man who was hurting her mother. She knew she would put herself in danger if the man found out that she was calling 911. So she pretended (假装) to order a pizza instead. When Tim sent police her way, he told them to turn off their sirens (警报器).
The police came and arrested (逮捕) 56-year-old Simon Lopez who was charged (被指控) with domestic violence (家暴).
Police Chief Michael Navarre said they couldn’t have saved this girl and her mom without Tim’s help. And it was important for people to tell the police dispatcher that they are in trouble. This girl did it not with her words, but with the tone (语气) of her voice. She was clever and brave and she saved her mom by keeping a cool head. It wasn’t easy in such an emergency, which made her a hero!

How do you go to school every day? By bike or on foot? Maybe you can try a new way—taking an S’Cool Bus.
The S’Cool Bus is also called the bike bus. Netherlands is a bike kingdom. Someone invented this kind of bicycle in Netherlands. It’s interesting for kids to ride the bike bus together to go to school.
Also, it is very safe. The bike bus has a driver and eleven seats for kids. Each one has a helmet and safety belt (安全带). There is a roof on the bus. It can be used on hot days or rainy days to make kids feel comfortable.
Riding the bike bus is one of the greatest and welcome ways for children to get to school. Peter is a 10-year-old boy. He becomes a big fan of the bike bus. “Now the S’Cool Bus is my favorite way of vehicle. I can ride it together with other kids to keep healthy. It’s full of fun.” For most parents, it can help them save a lot of time because they don’t have to pick up their children after school.
The S’Cool Bus is becoming more and more popular in some countries like Germany and France. Its inventor Thomas Tolkamp says, “I hope I can sell the bike bus to more countries in the future. As the green lifestyle (生活方式) becomes popular, ideas like this get popular, too. I think it will work well in other countries.” The use of S’Cool Bus shows us that we can save the Earth in many ways as long as we want to have a try.
56. According to the passage, what can we know about the S’Cool Bus?
A. It can carry twelve kids. B. It offers kids helmets and umbrellas.
C. It has no windows or roof. D. The driver and kids drive it together.
57. The author mentions (提及) Peter’s experience with the S’Cool Bus to ________.

D. show the fun-factor (因素) of riding the S’Cool Bus
58. According to the passage, where is the S’Cool Bus becoming popular?
A. Only in Netherlands. B. In Netherlands, Germany and France.
C. All over the world. D. In Asian countries.
59. Why does Thomas Tolkamp think the S’Cool Bus will work well in other countries?
A. Because it is not expensive for people to take.
B. Because more people like green lifestyles.
C. Because many people hope to try out new ideas.
D. Because it can help kids have the habit of exercising.
60. Which of the following can be the best title for this passage?

C. A Cool Way to School D. The Use of the Bike Bus

We humans talk every day. Most animals can speak as well. Plants seem to be very quiet. Can they talk? The answer is YES!
Scientists have found that plants can make sounds when something bad happens to them. In one study, scientists put sweet pepper and tomatoes in boxes together with special microphones (麦克风). These microphones can record sounds from 20 to 250 kilohertz (千赫) while humans can only hear sounds about 16 kilohertz. There were three groups of plants: Group 1 wasn’t watered for ten days, Group 2 had some parts cut off and Group 3 was untouched. The microphones caught sounds from 40 to 80 kilohertz from the first two groups. They made sounds about 30 to 50 times an hour, while Group 3 only made sounds about once or twice an hour.
Plants have a different way to “talk” when they are under attack (攻击) . Back in 1983, two scientists, Jack Schultz and Ian Baldwin, reported that when young maple trees (枫树) are getting bitten by insects, they give out special smell which is called VOCs, volatile organic compounds (挥发性有机化合物).
Scientists find that almost all kinds of plants give out VOCs. Some plants send out VOCs to keep bad insects away. But others do double duty. When being attacked (攻击), they send out VOCs to “call” other insects to help them fight against the attackers. When the “helpers” arrive, the tables are turned. Soon the attackers will fly away or even die. Studies show that VOCs coming from the injured parts of the plant can also help its neighbors. Usually, the first plant being attacked gets hurt most seriously, but its neighbors stay much safer because they “hear” the alarm (警报) and know what to do.
61. According to the passage, plants “talk” mainly in ________ ways.
A one B. two C. three D. four
62. What does the study in Paragraph 2 tell us?
A. Plants make sounds when they are not well.
B. Only sweet pepper and tomatoes make sounds.
C. Humans can hear the sounds made by plants.
D. Untouched plants don’t make any sounds.
63. When a plant is under attack, it will ________.
A. make loud noise B. stand still in silence
C. give out special smell D. get help from other plants
64. What does the phrase “the tables are turned” in paragraph 4 mean?
A. Insects gather on the table. B. The attackers get attacked.
C. The plants are in danger. D. All the insects will die.
65. Which is NOT the function (功能) of VOCs?
A. Keeping bad insects away. B. Calling other insects to help.
C. Sending alarm to plants nearby. D. Bringing food for the plants.

Do you often listen to music at loud volumes just because it makes you more excited? ____66____
Over 1 billion young people are at risk of hearing loss (听力丧失) because of listening to loud noise for long periods of time, said World Health Organization (WHO). Listening to music or watching a TV show at loud volumes can harm (伤害) your hearing.

【原文】Do you know how students in Western countries spend their vacations? In the UK, students often go to restaurants or hotels to do some jobs. In America, the winter vacation is too short, usually ten days, so most of the students will do some sports. Unlike the American students, Australian students have many days of vacation. They often go on a tour with their parents. German students spend their vacations in the countryside with their classmates. They go camping.

Most people want themselves to be happy forever, but few know how to find happiness. Others say if you own lots of money and success, you will be happy. However, money and success alone do not bring lasting happiness. A famous Greek thinker, Aristotle, said, “Happiness depends on (取决于) ourselves.” That’s to say, we make our own happiness. Here are a few suggestions to help you be happier.
The first secret of happiness is to enjoy the simple things in life. Too often, we spend so much time thinking about the future. For example, getting into college or getting a good job, which makes us fail to enjoy the present. You should enjoy life’s simple pleasures, such as reading a good book, listening to your favorite music, or spending time with close friends. If you live with a few close friends, you will feel happier and healthier.
Another secret of living a happy life is to be active. Many people go dancing or do sports. People can forget about their problems and only think about the activities.
Finally, many people find happiness in helping others. Studies show that people feel good when they spend their time helping others. If you want to feel happier, you can do good things for someone. You can help a friend with his or her studies, go shopping or help out with some things around the house for an elderly person. If you can do that, you will feel happy.
46. According to Paragraph 1, what should we do if we want to have lasting happiness?
A. Try to make much money. B. Try to be successful.
C. Make a lot of friends. D. Make our own happiness.
47. If you want to enjoy the simple things in life, what should you do?
①listen to my favorite music ②read a good book
③have a good meal ④spend time with close friends
A. ①② B. ①②④ C. ②③④ D. ①②③
48. How many suggestions of happiness are mentioned in this passage?

A. Helping others can make people feel good.
B. To feel happier, you can help an elderly person.
C. Active persons may live a happier life than others.

50. What’s the main idea of this passage?

She didn’t want a pizza. She needed help! But she couldn’t tell him that directly because she wasn’t in a safe place.
After asking a few more questions, Tim said to the girl, “I’m getting you now.” As it turned out, the girl was in an apartment with a man who was hurting her mother. She knew she would put herself in danger if the man found out that she was calling 911. So she pretended (假装) to order a pizza instead. When Tim sent police her way, he told them to turn off their sirens (警报器).
The police came and arrested (逮捕) 56-year-old Simon Lopez who was charged (被指控) with domestic violence (家暴)
Police Chief Michael Navarre said they couldn’t have saved this girl and her mom without Tim’s help. And it was important for people to tell the police dispatcher that they are in trouble.

The S’Cool Bus is becoming more and more popular in some countries like Germany and France. Its inventor Thomas Tolkamp says, “I hope I can sell the bike bus to more countries in the future. As the green lifestyle (生活方式) becomes popular, ideas like this get popular, too.

We humans talk every day. Most animals can speak as well. Plants seem to be very quiet. Can they talk? The answer is YES!
Scientists have found that plants can make sounds when something bad happens to them. In one study, scientists put sweet pepper and tomatoes in boxes together with special microphones (麦克风). These microphones can record sounds from 20 to 250 kilohertz (千赫) while humans can only hear sounds about 16 kilohertz. There were three groups of plants: Group 1 wasn’t watered for ten days, Group 2 had some parts cut off and Group 3 was untouched. The microphones caught sounds from 40 to 80 kilohertz from the first two groups. They made sounds about 30 to 50 times an hour, while Group 3 only made sounds about once or twice an hour.
Plants have a different way to “talk” when they are under attack (攻击) . Back in 1983, two scientists, Jack Schultz and Ian Baldwin, reported that when young maple trees (枫树) are getting bitten by insects, they give out special smell which is called VOCs, volatile organic compounds (挥发性有机化合物).
Scientists find that almost all kinds of plants give out VOCs. Some plants send out VOCs to keep bad insects away. But others do double duty. When being attacked (攻击), they send out VOCs to “call” other insects to help them fight against the attackers. When the “helpers” arrive, the tables are turned. Soon the attackers will fly away or even die. Studies show that VOCs coming from the injured parts of the plant can also help its neighbors. Usually, the first plant being attacked gets hurt most seriously, but its neighbors stay much safer because they “hear” the alarm (警报) and know what to do.
61. According to the passage, plants “talk” mainly in ________ ways.
A. one B. two C. three D. four
62. What does the study in Paragraph 2 tell us?
A. Plants make sounds when they are not well.
B. Only sweet pepper and tomatoes make sounds.
C. Humans can hear the sounds made by plants.
D. Untouched plants don’t make any sounds.
63. When a plant is under attack, it will ________.
A. make loud noise B. stand still in silence
C. give out special smell D. get help from other plants
64. What does the phrase “the tables are turned” in paragraph 4 mean?
A. Insects gather on the table. B. The attackers get attacked.
C. The plants are in danger. D. All the insects will die.
65. Which is NOT the function (功能) of VOCs?
A. Keeping bad insects away. B. Calling other insects to help.
C. Sending alarm to plants nearby. D. Bringing food for the plants.
【答案】61. B 62. A 63. C 64. B 65. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了植物能够“交流”,它们主要通过在遭遇不良情况时发出声音以及在受到攻击时释放挥发性有机化合物(VOCs)这两种方式进行“交流”,并说明了VOCs的相关功能。
【61题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章内容,第二段提到植物在遭遇不良情况时会发出声音,第三、四段提到植物在受到攻击时会释放挥发性有机化合物(VOCs),可知植物主要通过两种方式“交流”。故选B。
【62题详解】
细节理解题。根据“Scientists have found that plants can make sounds when something bad happens to them.”以及实验中前两组(缺水和被切割的植物)发出的声音远多于未受影响的第三组,可知该研究表明植物在状况不佳时会发出声音。故选A。
【63题详解】
细节理解题。根据“when young maple trees are getting bitten by insects, they give out special smell which is called VOCs”可知,植物受到攻击时会释放特殊气味。故选C。
【64题详解】
词义猜测题。根据“When being attacked, they send out VOCs to 'call' other insects to help them fight against the attackers. When the 'helpers' arrive, the tables are turned. Soon the attackers will fly away or even die.”可知,当“帮手”到来后,攻击者会逃离甚至死亡,即攻击者反遭攻击。故选B。
【65题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“Some plants send out VOCs to keep bad insects away... they send out VOCs to 'call' other insects to help them... VOCs... can also help its neighbors... they 'hear' the alarm”可知,VOCs的功能不包括为植物带来食物。故选D。

【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了在寒冷的季节,人们可能会因天气等因素产生不良情绪,但这些情绪受自身掌控,我们应保持积极心态,发现季节的美。
【81题详解】
句意:秋天可能意味着更多的树叶从树上掉到地上,或者可能意味着蚊虫造成的“灾难”更少了。leaf是可数名词,前面有“more”修饰,所以要用复数形式leaves。故填leaves。
【82题详解】
句意:在我看来,秋天和其他季节一样美妙。此处表示与其他季节相比,other意为“其他的”,修饰可数名词复数“seasons”,符合语境。故填other。
【83题详解】
句意:当秋天来临时,人们更容易感到担忧和焦虑,这是很常见的,因为这意味着冬天不远了。“It is + 形容词 + for sb. to do sth.”是固定句型,意为“对某人来说做某事是……的”,所以此处用动词不定式to feel。故填to feel。
【84题详解】
句意:当秋天来临时,人们更容易感到担忧和焦虑,这是很常见的,因为这意味着冬天不远了。far away是固定短语,意为“遥远的”,not far away表示“不远”,符合语境。故填far。
【85题详解】
句意:根据科学研究,白天时间缩短和气温降低确实会导致人们情绪低落。“shortened daytime hours”和“lower temperatures”是并列关系,所以用连词and连接。故填and。
【86题详解】
句意:然而,与我们生活中的其他事情相比,天气对我们情绪的影响并不像我们想象的那么大。“as...as...”是固定结构,意为“和……一样……”,符合语境。故填as。
【87题详解】
句意:例如,当你在一个晴朗的早晨被老师惩罚时,你仍然会发现很难摆脱不愉快的感觉,不是吗?表示在具体的某一天早晨,用介词on。故填on。
【88题详解】
句意:例如,当你在一个晴朗的早晨被老师惩罚时,你仍然会发现很难摆脱不愉快的感觉,不是吗?“find it + 形容词 + to do sth.”是固定句型,其中it作形式宾语,真正的宾语是后面的动词不定式。故填it。
【89题详解】
句意:事实上,天气不能直接影响我们的情绪。根据首字母“a”以及语境可知,此处应填affect,意为“影响”,情态动词“can”后接动词原形。故填(a)ffect。
【90题详解】
句意:在我看来,寒冷的季节有它们自己的美。此处修饰名词“beauty”,要用形容词性物主代词,they的形容词性物主代词是their。故填their。
