One hot afternoon, after exploring the city, I felt really tired. I wanted to tell my French friend, Claire, “I am a little tired.” I carefully said the words I’d learned: “Je suis un pue fatigue.” But Claire burst out laughing. My face felt hot. What had I done wrong? Claire explained, “In French, there are words that sound similar but have very different meanings; ‘peu’ means ‘a little,’ but if you pronounce it differently, it can sound like ‘pue’, which means ‘stinks’ — like something smells bad. So, instead of saying you needed a rest, it sounded like you were saying you smelled bad and were tired”. This awkward (尴尬的) moment was a real eye-opener for me. It made me realize just how daunting pronunciation can be in a foreign language. Even small differences in pronunciation can completely change the meaning of what you’re trying to say. The same is true in English, for example, “ship” (a large boat) and “sheep” (a woolly animal) sound very similar, but they mean totally different things. Now, I pay extra attention to how words sound and what they mean. And if I mix them up again? I’ll just laugh along. After all, laughing is part of learning - even if it’s a bit stinky sometimes. 4. Why was the author nervous about his holiday in France? A He was poor at French. B. He never went abroad. C. He had no friends there. D. He was in short of money. 5. What awkward moment did the author meet? A. He met a wrong person. B. He made a pronunciation mistake. C He was tricked by the locals. D. He spelt a word incorrectly. 6. What lesson did the author learn from his embarrassing experience? A. It is better to stay silent than to risk making mistakes. B. Mastering grammar is more important than pronunciation. C. A tiny error in speech can lead to a major misunderstanding. D. French is the most difficult language for foreigners to learn. 7. How did the author’s experience in France affect him? A. He smelled bad and was tired. B. He hated learning foreign languages. C. He no longer considered Claire as a friend. D. He became open to mistakes in language learning. C When learning a foreign language, most people fall back on traditional ways: reading, writing, listening and repeating. But Brian Mathias’ research team found out that if you gesture(做手势) with your arms while studying, you can remember the vocabulary better, even months later. As Mathias describes, they had 22 German-speaking adults learn a total of 90 invented words over four days. While the test subjects first heard the new vocabulary, they were shown a video of a person making a gesture that matched the meaning of the word. When the word was repeated, the subjects performed the gesture themselves. Five months later, they were asked to translate the vocabulary they had learned into German. At the same time, they had equipment attached to their heads that sent weak distracting signals to their primary motor cortex(运动皮层) — the brain area that controls voluntary arm movements. Those who performed better on the task showed a higher level of activity in their motor cortex. The researchers concluded that the motor cortex contributed to the translation of the vocabulary learned with gestures. The effect did not occur when the subjects were only presented with matching pictures instead of gestures. Another research group led by Leipzig had young adults and eight-year-old children listen to new vocabulary for five days, paired with matching pictures or videos of gestures. After two months, the two methods were still equally effective. But after six months, the adults benefited more from the gestures than the pictures, while the children were helped equally by both. But it is not only the motor cortex itself that promotes learning. The meaning expressed by the gesture also figures in, “I think we underuse gesture in our classrooms,” Goldin-Meadow says. “Good teachers and good listeners use it, but not always in a systematic way. Others don’t necessarily bring it into the class — and it could be used more often and more effectively.” 8. What do we know according to Brian Mathias’ research? A. Those only presented with matching pictures performed better. B. The motor cortex had nothing to do with the vocabulary learning. C. The research concluded that gestures benefited vocabulary learning. D. 22 German-speaking adults and children were chosen as the test subjects. 9. Why was equipment attached to the subjects’ heads during Mathias’ test? A. To count words. B. To record emotion. C. To influence brain activity. D. To give clues to questions. 10. What does Leipzig’s research tell us about language learning? A. Adults and children are equally good learners. B. Pictures have little influence on language learning. C. Pictures are found more helpful than videos for children. D. Benefits of gestures are more obvious in adults in the long run. 11. What does the author suggest teachers do in the classroom? A. Make better use of gestures. B. Teach listening in a systematic way. C. Avoid traditional teaching approaches. D. Do some scientific researches on teaching. D Expecting the worst to avoid feeling bad later is known as “bracing”. It may help them prepare for emotionally challenging situations, particularly in the moments before these situations occur. People brace for the worst while awaiting potentially negative outcomes. Someone might also brace for the worst in anticipation of stressful events like giving a presentation at work. Some psychological theories suggest that bracing should help. For example, “decision affect theory” proposes that how we feel about a situation is determined partly by comparing what actually happened with what could have happened. Based on this, people should be happy when an event goes beyond their expectations, and disappointed when an event falls behind. Therefore, by anticipating the worst, one can safeguard themselves against future disappointment, as any result is likely to surpass their expectations. Other psychological theories, nevertheless, undermine the idea that bracing will be helpful. It has been theorized and scientifically established that expectations can powerfully influence reality. There are two key ways that expectations can shape reality. First, people may behave in ways that fit with their expectations. If you expect to fail an upcoming test or interview, then you might not invest efforts in preparation, which in turn reduces your chances of doing well. Second, people may interpret a situation in line with their expectations. Imagine you believe you are insufficiently qualified for a job you’ve applied for. During the job interview, you’re likely to interpret blank expressions from the interviewer in line with this belief, which could negatively affect your performance. In fact, the interviewer did not want to give anything away. Drawing together the scientific studies, it seems that expecting the worst is anything but a wise way to prepare for upcoming news or results. It might be more sensible to hold positive expectations than to brace for the worst. 12. What is the second paragraph mainly about? A. The logic of preparing for the worst. B. The theory of comparing past and future. C. The conflict between people’s expectation and reality. D. The emotions hidden behind anticipating the worst. 13. What does the underlined word “undermine” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Strengthen. B. Propose. C. Weaken. D. Justify. 14. How can negative expectations probably affect people’s performance in reality? A. By reducing people’s chances of doing well. B. By stimulating people’s ambition and motivation. C. By giving weight to people’s potential of excellence. D. By causing less preparation and some misinterpretations. 15. Which would the author most likely agree with regarding “bracing for the worst”? A. It fully guarantees people a positive emotional experience. B. It may bring more drawbacks than benefits in practice. C. It is a universal solution for handling difficult situations. D. It has no impact on how people view real-life events. 第二节 (共5小题，每题2. 5分，共12. 5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 As a speaker of 10 languages, I know the benefits of speaking more than one language.

In 1968, I learnt to speak Mandarin fluently while living in San Francisco. ____19____ You can download it to your cellphone and listen. Where you live is not a problem. I would love to learn but I don’t have the time. How about the time you spend waiting in line, doing things around the house and going for a walk?____20____ Once you get started, even 10 or 15 minutes a day will soon grow to 30 minutes a day, or one hour.

It’s sad to see so much food left in the bins of our canteen every day. Wasting food means wasting the hard work of farmers and hurting our environment. To make a change, here are three practical steps we can all take. First, know your appetite. Please take only the amount of food you can finish. If you’re not very hungry, ask for a smaller serving. Second, make “Clean Plate” your goal. Try to finish everything you take and feel good about it. Third, be an encourager. Please share the idea with your friends and remind each other to save food. A small step by each of us can lead to a big change for our school. Let’s start from today and make our canteen a better place! Yours, Li Hua 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
