At just 15 months old,Barnard was diagnosed with Diamond Blackfan Anemia,or DBA(先天再生障碍性贫血)，and she spent most of her life in and out of the hospital. Barnard said she relied on the singer to bring her joy. The only way to survive DBA is with a bone marrow transplant(骨移植)and Barnard was eager for one.But she knew thousands of other patients are,too.So,a few years ago,she decided to do something about it,creating her own foundation: Hallie's Heroes."It started selfishly as just trying to save my life,but then we realized there were so many other children out there that needed a bone marrow transplant, she said."So,so far we've tested 8,000 people and found over 300 matches." After a 9-year wait,Barnard got her own match-through her own foundation. But more difficulties stood between her and normal life as a kid.The blood disease led to a cancer diagnosis:osteosarcoma.She received operation to cut the cancer out 5 of her leg at MD Anderson in Houston. The recovery was difficult,but Barnard said she stayed hopeful."My survival instinct()just kicked in.I was trying to do anything that I could to survive.So, of course,it was scary but in my mind,I was just thinking that I wanted to be at my sister's future wedding.I wanted to play games and run again,"she said. Her survival instinct-combined with Taylor Swift-helped her through her cperation,where doctors cut her cancer out,and reattached her foot and ankle to her upper leg to work as a knee. 56.Why does the author mention Taylor Swift's song "Bad Blood"? A.To stress the power of music. B.To show Taylor Swift's popularity. C.To introduce the topic of the text. D.To state Taylor Swift's song is a hit. 57.What is Hallie Barnard's original motivation()for creating Hallie's Heroes? A.To raise money for her heroes.B.To treat her rare blood disease. C.To help other children with DBA.D.To have an operation for her cancer. 58.What does the underlined phrase "kicked in"in Paragraph 5 mean A.'disappear B.break down C.speed up D.begin to play a part 59.Which of the following can best describe Hallie Barnard? A.Kind and optimistic B.Hard-working and patient. C.Strong-minded and selfish. D.Outgoing and helpful. 60.What's the best title for the text? A.“Bad Blood”Inspired More People B.Hallie's Heroes:A Useful Foundation C.Taylor Swift:a Popular Singer with Teens D.a Cancer Survivor Helped Others Find Matches C During the shopping season,salesmen will come up with different strategies() to get your business.Many product companies use specific colors to cause positive emotions and compete for a sale.However,sight is not the only sensory() retail(that companies use.Sounds and smells can also influence consumers' purchasing decisions. Nobel Prize-winning research shows that our sense of smell has great power to cause an emotional response.A study published earlier this year compared purchasing in a French flower shop when the smell of lavender(薫衣草)was given off(放出)and when it wasn't.It found that the smell increased the number of consumers'purchasing items and the amount of their purchases.An earlier study using Nike shoes found that consumers desired the shoes more,and were willing to pay more when the room had a mixed smell of flowers.Realizing the subconscious((下意识的)impact of smell,many stores apply artificial scents()through their heating and air-conditioning vents( )or place scent machines above their doors.For instance,a coconut scent might make that bikini more appealing as you long for a vacation. Ever felt frenzied due to a store's fast-paced music?Or calmed by a piece of light music A retailer's choice of music can have a big impact on consumers'moods.One study found that when subjected to loud music,consumers will spend less time in a store.But interestingly,the researchers did not find a difference in sales or customers' satisfaction.Another interesting finding from a recent study was that customers actually shop longer when exposed to unfamiliar music.Just as department stores use different scents in certain departments,many use different music in some areas to appeal to different consumers. Well,you could always leave the store and take a break,but the food court probably isn't your best choices as brands like Cinnabon and Panera Bread also uses scents as part of their customers'experience.Online retailers()use a variety of other strategies to get your business,but you can always ignore those and enjoy the familiar scents of home. 61.The passage is mainly about A.consumers'favorite sounds and smells while shopping B.shopping malls strategies for satisfying consumers C.two factors affecting consumers'shopping decisions D.some special service from super shopping malls 62.What can be inferred from Paragraph 2 A.Decorating stores with flowers becomes a fashion. B.Smells can actually help businessmen gain more profits C.Shops with special smells can attract more consumers D.The products with a kind of special smell are more popular 63.How does music have an effect on consumers A.It influences how long consumers stay in a shop B.It controls consumers'desire for shopping C.It gives consumers the satisfaction of enjoying shopping D.Whether consumers are willing to buy things depends on it 64.Which of the following can replace the underlined word "frenzied"in Para.3? A.Surprised B.Depressed C.Satisfied D.Excited 65.What does the writer try to express in the last paragraph? A.Online shopping is becoming more and more popular nowadays B.People can choose to get rid of salesman's promotion strategies C.People should spend more time at home with family members D.Smells and sounds are important for consumers'shopping experience. 第IⅡ卷非选择题 第一节：阅读表达（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分) 阅读短文，按照题目要求用英语回答问题。 While it may seem impossible for a simple question to change everything,that is in fact my story.I was relatively()happy person.I created a business.I was able to travel.Life was mostly appealing.Even so.I often felt angry,sad and frustrated, which many people would call a normal existence.
