I know it’s more ____9____ to give than receive, but allow yourself to receive a place to stay, and allow us the opportunity to give you something you need!” We stayed at Flores’ home for 2 weeks with great gratitude (感激).

Unfortunately, his schoolteacher knew nothing about dyslexia (阅读障碍症), a learning disability that can make letters and numbers confusing. She didn’t try to help him. Not surprisingly, Willard didn’t like school. Usually, his mind drifted — to playing outside, to his dog Maxie, or to the ants that lived near his family’s garden shed. Willard was especially curious about those ants. He felt like them — small and insignificant. Thus, when he noticed some ants trying to build a house, he decided to help them! Willard constructed a little building. Then he sprinkled (撒) sugar inside to encourage the ants to move in. When they did, Willard built more houses. At school, Willard still struggled, but now he knew he could do something special. Maybe he wasn’t a failure after all. If he had trouble with his reading or math, Willard would later go home and create tiny furniture for the ant houses. He even built an ant school, with teeny swings, ladders, seesaws, and a merry-go-round. His artistic skill increased, and a love for little things began to grow in his heart. At age nine, Willard began carving (雕刻) faces on toothpicks (牙签). He discovered that his ability improved when he held his breath as he worked. When he quit school at age 15 to help support his family, Willard still spent his spare time carving. His confidence grew as more people appreciated his talent. Eventually, he quit his factory job to pursue his dream of becoming one of the best artists in the world. Now, years later, Willard carves the tiniest artwork in the world! His sculptures are so small that several can fit on a period (句号) at the end of a sentence. Because of their beauty and rarity (稀有), his sculptures have made Willard a wealthy man. But he says, “Success isn’t about material things like an expensive watch or a costly ring; it’s about sticking to and achieving your dreams.” Willard Wigan, microsculptor (微雕家), has done just that. The man who felt small as a boy has shown the world that something small can really be BIG. 20. Which of the following best describes Willard’s teacher? A. Supportive. B. Unhelpful. C. Impatient. D. Careless. 21. Why did Willard become interested in building homes for ants? A. Because he had a love for little things. B. Because he was absent-minded in class. C. Because he wouldn’t have to struggle at school. D. Because he thought they both seemed unimportant. 22. Which of the following may Willard agree with? A. Failure is the mother of success. B. Success belongs to those who don’t give up. C. Dreaming big is the first step in achieving our goals. D. Talent is sometimes more important for success than hard work. 【答案】20. B 21. D 22. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了阅读障碍症患者Willard Wigan通过微观雕刻实现梦想的故事。 【20题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Unfortunately, his schoolteacher knew nothing about dyslexia (阅读障碍症), a learning disability that can make letters and numbers confusing. She didn’t try to help him.(不幸的是，他的老师对阅读障碍一无所知，这是一种会使字母和数字混淆的学习障碍。她没有试图帮助他)”可知，Willard的老师帮不上他忙，可以用unhelpful来描述。故选B。 21题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Willard was especially curious about those ants. He felt like them — small and insignificant.(Willard对那些蚂蚁特别好奇。他觉得自己和它们一样——渺小而微不足道)”可知，Willard对给蚂蚁建房子感兴趣是因为他觉得他和蚂蚁一样，都不重要。故选D。 【22题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“But he says, “Success isn’t about material things like an expensive watch or a costly ring; it’s about sticking to and achieving your dreams.”(但他表示：“成功并非关乎诸如昂贵手表或昂贵戒指这类物质的东西；而是关乎坚持并实现自己的梦想。”)”可推知，Willard可能会同意的说法是成功属于那些不放弃的人。故选B。 C Have you ever bought a new car and started noticing the exact color and model of the car everywhere? Has that type of car just become popular in your city? Were they there before? Or are you just going crazy? You’re not going crazy. The reason you are now just noticing them is what psychologists call “priming”. Basically, the cars were always there. You just didn’t recognize them consciously. However, when that certain model of the car becomes part of your conscious thinking, you start “automatically” recognizing all of the other cars that are the same, because you are already “primed” to do so. The priming effect takes many forms. In one study, students were asked to walk around a room for minutes at a rate of 30 steps per minute, which was about one-third of their normal pace. After this brief experience, the participants were much quicker to recognize words related to old age, such as forgetful, old, and lonely. Reciprocal priming effects tend to produce a coherent reaction: if you are primed to think of old age, you would tend to act old, and acting old would reinforce the thought of old age. This research shows that the way we think influences the way we act, and the way we act influences the way we think. A similar conclusion was reached by the American psychologist William James a century ago, but he emphasized the effect on feeling. “Actions seem to follow feeling, but really actions and feeling go together, and by regulating the action, which is under the more direct control of the will, we can indirectly regulate the feeling, which is not. Thus the path to cheerfulness, should our cheerfulness be lost, is to sit up cheerfully and to act and speak as if cheerfulness were already there.” So, that’s it. If you want to be happy, just sit up and act happily. Based on these scientific findings, we can adopt certain priming effects to help make ourselves consistently happier. One thing we have in common is our ability to think, and thus feel. Pleasant thoughts have been proven to produce the chemicals that make us feel happy, particularly thoughts and feelings of gratitude. When we purposefully go through and think about the things we’re grateful for and deliberately feel as much gratitude as we can, we are flooding our mind with the “happy chemicals”. Furthermore, by consciously thinking, feeling and expressing gratitude, we will not only be happier in the moment, we will be “primed” to recognize the things in our life to appreciate. Each time this happens, the “happy chemicals” will be produced. Do this every day and we will become consistently happier. This makes up for the momentary happiness we gain from eating chocolate or buying new clothes. More than that, combining thoughts of gratitude with happy acts like smiling and laughing will have a supplementary positive effect on our state of mind. 23. Which of the following is an example of the priming effect? A. Walking much faster after attending a lecture about old age. B. Donating money to the poor after seeing pictures of cute cats. C. Learning about various types of cars after purchasing the first car. D. Completing SO_P as SOUP rather than SOAP after seeing the word EAT. 24. What does the underlined word “reciprocal” in Paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Related. B. Two-way. C. Well-rounded. D. Opposite. 25. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage? A. Prime Yourself to Be Happier B. Share Happiness to Enhance Wellbeing C. why Gratitude Is Important in Psychology D. How Happy Chemicals Affect People’s Thoughts 【答案】23. D 24. B 25. A 【解析】 【导语】本文为一篇说明文。通过注意到在马路上有很多与自己新买的车同款的汽车，引出心理学中的“启动效应”，启动效应有多种形式，研究表明：因为启动效应，人们的思维方式与行为方式之间会相互作用，基于科学发现，我们可以采用某些启动效应来帮助我们始终保持快乐。 【23题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“In one study, students were asked to walk around a room for minutes at a rate of 30 steps per minute, which was about one-third of their normal pace. After this brief experience, the participants were much quicker to recognize words related to old age, such as forgetful, old, and lonely.(在一项研究中，研究人员要求参与者在一间房间里以每分钟 30 步的速度行走几分钟，这一速度仅为他们正常行走速度的约三分之一。完成这一短暂的活动后，参与者能够更快地识别与衰老相关的词汇，比如“健忘的”“年老的”和“孤独的”)”可知，在感知慢速行走的过程后，参与者会更快识别与老年有管的词汇，D项“Completing SO_P as SOUP rather than SOAP after seeing the word EAT. (在看到单词EAT后将SO_P补全为SOUP而不是SOAP)”，参与者在已看见EAT这个单词后，内心会留意相关信息，与EAT有关联的词汇为SOUP，意为“汤，羹”，而SOAP为“肥皂”。由此推知，D项的例子属于“启动效应”，故选D项。 【24题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段“Reciprocal priming effects tend to produce a coherent reaction: if you are primed to think of old age, you would tend to act old, and acting old would reinforce the thought of old age. This research shows that the way we think influences the way we act, and the way we act influences the way we think.(Reciprocal启动效应往往会产生连贯的反应：如果你被启动想到老年，你就会倾向于表现得很老，而表现得很老会强化老年的想法。这项研究表明，我们的思维方式影响我们的行为方式，而我们的行为方式又影响我们的思维方式)”可知，这里陈述的是启动效应的一个形式，思维影响行为，行为又反过来影响思维，说明Reciprocal意为“交互的，互相的”，与Two-way意思相同，故选B项。 【25题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其倒数第二段“So, that’s it. If you want to be happy, just sit up and act happily. Based on these scientific findings, we can adopt certain priming effects to help make ourselves consistently happier.(就是这样。如果你想快乐，那就坐起来，装出快乐的样子。基于这些科学发现，我们可以采用某些启动效应来帮助我们始终保持快乐)”可知，通过注意到在马路上有很多与自己新买的车同款的汽车，文章引出话题：心理学中的“启动效应”，文章还提到了一些研究结果，表明我们的思维方式与我们的行为方式之间会相互作用，通过有意识地思考和感受感激之情，我们不仅当前快乐，也启动了长期的幸福。由此可知，“Prime Yourself to Be Happier (启动自己让自己变得更快乐)”适合作文章的标题。故选A项。 第二节(共5小题;每小题3分共15分) 阅读下面短文和问题，根据短文内容和每小题后的具体要求，在相应题号后的横线上写下相关信息，完成对该问题的回答。 I have a special rule for travel; never carry a map. I prefer to ask for directions. Sometimes I get lost,but I usually don’t mind. I can practice a new language, meet new people, and learn new customs. And I find out about different“styles”of giving directions every time I ask, “How can I get to the post office?” Foreign tourists are often confused in Japan because most streets don’t have names. In Japan, people use landmarks in their directions instead of street names. For example, the Japanese will say to travelers, “Go straight down to the corner. Turn left at the big hotel and go past a fruit market. The post office is across from the bus stop.” In the countryside of the American Midwest, there are not usually many landmarks. There are no mountains, so the land is very flat; in many places there are no towns, or buildings within miles. Instead of landmarks, people will tell you directions and distances. In Kansas or Iowa, for instance, people will say,“Go north two miles. Turn east, and then go another mile. ” People in Los Angeles, California, have no idea of distance on the map: they measure distance in Los Angeles in time, not miles. “How far away is the post office?” you ask. “Oh,” they answer, “it’s about five minutes from here.” You say, “Yes, but how many miles away is it?” They don’t know. People in Greece sometimes do not even try to give directions because tourists seldom understand the Greek language. Instead a Greek person will often say, “Follow me.” Then he’ll lead you through the streets of the city to the post office. Sometimes a person doesn’t know the answer to your question. What happens in this situation? A New Yorker might say, “Sorry, I have no idea.” But in Yucatan, Mexico, no one answers “I don’t know.” People in Yucatan believe that “I don’t know” is impolite. They usually give an answer, often a wrong one. A tourist can get very, very lost in Yucatan! One thing will help you everywhere-in Japan, the United States, Greece, Mexico, or any other place. You might not understand a person’s words, but you can probably understand the person’s body language: He or she will usually turn and then point in the correct direction. Go in that direction, and you may find the post office. 26. What is the writer’s special rule for travel? (不多于四个单词) _______________________________________________________________________________ 27. Why are foreign tourists confused in Japan? (不多于六个单词) _______________________________________________________________________________ 28. In which country will people give directions like “Follow this road for 2 more miles and turn left”? (不多于两个单词) _______________________________________________________________________________ 29. Why do tourists in Yucatan get angry when asking a local for directions? (不多于六个单词) _______________________________________________________________________________ 30. According to the writer, what language can everyone understand when asking for directions? (不多于两个单词) _______________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】26. Never carry a map. 27. Most streets have no names. 28. America. 29. Often get wrong directions. 30. Body language. 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了作者旅行时的一个特殊规则 —— 从不带地图，而是喜欢问路。文章详细描述了日本、美国中西部、洛杉矶、希腊以及墨西哥尤卡坦半岛等地人们不同的指路方式，并指出肢体语言在问路时是通用的。 【26题详解】 考查细节理解。根据文章第一段第一句“I have a special rule for travel; never carry a map.

In Kansas or Iowa, for instance, people will say,“Go north two miles. Turn east, and then go another mile. ”. (在美国中西部的乡村，通常没有很多地标性建筑。那里没有山脉，所以地势非常平坦；在很多地方，数英里内都没有城镇或建筑物。人们不会以地标来给你指路，而是会告诉你方向和距离。例如，在堪萨斯州或爱荷华州，人们会说：“向北走两英里。向东转，然后再走一英里。”)” 可知，美国（美国中西部）的人们会用英里来指路，故答案为America。 【29题详解】 考查细节理解。根据文章第六段“They usually give an answer, often a wrong one.

Over 80% people go to work by car. 25% car journeys are under two miles. 70% car journeys are under five miles. WALKING&CYCLING Instead of using the car for short journeys，why not walk or ride a bicycle？ Walking is a most popular form of exercise—it's healthy and it can save you money. If you work nearby， try walking or cycling instead of driving. Walking your children to school gives them valuable road experience. BUSES Bus companies are using new buses：some run on new fuels which produce less pollution；some have easier access for disabled and old people. There are special traffic lanes（行车道）to make bus journeys easier and more reliable. So do something to help solve the pollution problem let the bus take you to work and your children to school. TRAINS All car journeys，long or short，can be hard work. For some trips it is wiser to take the train. Leave your car at home and walk，cycle or take a bus to and from the station. Train travel is fast，safe and comfortable. Train tickets are not always expensive；some are quite cheap at discount. 16. How many of car journeys are just for fun in the UK？ A. 25%. B. About 50%. C. 70%. D. Over 80%. 17. The writer believes that ________ can give children valuable road experience. A. walking to school B. traveling by train C. taking new fuel buses D. having car journeys for fun 18. What does the writer think of traveling by train? A. Tiring. B. Comfortable. C. Exciting. D. Awful. 19. What is the main purpose of this passage? A. To advise people to use cars less often. B. To encourage people to travel by train. C. To teach people how to use the buses. D. To tell people to obey traffic rules. B Five-year-old Willard Wigan struggled to tell the difference between an M and a W or a 6 and a 9. Unfortunately, his schoolteacher knew nothing about dyslexia (阅读障碍症), a learning disability that can make letters and numbers confusing. She didn’t try to help him. Not surprisingly, Willard didn’t like school. Usually, his mind drifted — to playing outside, to his dog Maxie, or to the ants that lived near his family’s garden shed. Willard was especially curious about those ants. He felt like them — small and insignificant. Thus, when he noticed some ants trying to build a house, he decided to help them! Willard constructed a little building. Then he sprinkled (撒) sugar inside to encourage the ants to move in. When they did, Willard built more houses. At school, Willard still struggled, but now he knew he could do something special. Maybe he wasn’t a failure after all. If he had trouble with his reading or math, Willard would later go home and create tiny furniture for the ant houses. He even built an ant school, with teeny swings, ladders, seesaws, and a merry-go-round. His artistic skill increased, and a love for little things began to grow in his heart. At age nine, Willard began carving (雕刻) faces on toothpicks (牙签). He discovered that his ability improved when he held his breath as he worked. When he quit school at age 15 to help support his family, Willard still spent his spare time carving. His confidence grew as more people appreciated his talent. Eventually, he quit his factory job to pursue his dream of becoming one of the best artists in the world. Now, years later, Willard carves the tiniest artwork in the world! His sculptures are so small that several can fit on a period (句号) at the end of a sentence. Because of their beauty and rarity (稀有), his sculptures have made Willard a wealthy man. But he says, “Success isn’t about material things like an expensive watch or a costly ring; it’s about sticking to and achieving your dreams.” Willard Wigan, microsculptor (微雕家), has done just that. The man who felt small as a boy has shown the world that something small can really be BIG. 20 Which of the following best describes Willard’s teacher? A. Supportive. B. Unhelpful. C. Impatient. D. Careless. 21. Why did Willard become interested in building homes for ants? A. Because he had a love for little things. B. Because he was absent-minded in class. C. Because he wouldn’t have to struggle at school. D. Because he thought they both seemed unimportant. 22. Which of the following may Willard agree with? A. Failure is the mother of success. B. Success belongs to those who don’t give up. C. Dreaming big is the first step in achieving our goals. D. Talent is sometimes more important for success than hard work. C Have you ever bought a new car and started noticing the exact color and model of the car everywhere? Has that type of car just become popular in your city? Were they there before? Or are you just going crazy? You’re not going crazy. The reason you are now just noticing them is what psychologists call “priming”. Basically, the cars were always there. You just didn’t recognize them consciously. However, when that certain model of the car becomes part of your conscious thinking, you start “automatically” recognizing all of the other cars that are the same, because you are already “primed” to do so. The priming effect takes many forms. In one study, students were asked to walk around a room for minutes at a rate of 30 steps per minute, which was about one-third of their normal pace. After this brief experience, the participants were much quicker to recognize words related to old age, such as forgetful, old, and lonely. Reciprocal priming effects tend to produce a coherent reaction: if you are primed to think of old age, you would tend to act old, and acting old would reinforce the thought of old age. This research shows that the way we think influences the way we act, and the way we act influences the way we think. A similar conclusion was reached by the American psychologist William James a century ago, but he emphasized the effect on feeling. “Actions seem to follow feeling, but really actions and feeling go together, and by regulating the action, which is under the more direct control of the will, we can indirectly regulate the feeling, which is not. Thus the path to cheerfulness, should our cheerfulness be lost, is to sit up cheerfully and to act and speak as if cheerfulness were already there.” So, that’s it. If you want to be happy, just sit up and act happily. Based on these scientific findings, we can adopt certain priming effects to help make ourselves consistently happier. One thing we have in common is our ability to think, and thus feel. Pleasant thoughts have been proven to produce the chemicals that make us feel happy, particularly thoughts and feelings of gratitude. When we purposefully go through and think about the things we’re grateful for and deliberately feel as much gratitude as we can, we are flooding our mind with the “happy chemicals”. Furthermore, by consciously thinking, feeling and expressing gratitude, we will not only be happier in the moment, we will be “primed” to recognize the things in our life to appreciate. Each time this happens, the “happy chemicals” will be produced. Do this every day and we will become consistently happier. This makes up for the momentary happiness we gain from eating chocolate or buying new clothes. More than that, combining thoughts of gratitude with happy acts like smiling and laughing will have a supplementary positive effect on our state of mind. 23. Which of the following is an example of the priming effect? A. Walking much faster after attending a lecture about old age. B. Donating money to the poor after seeing pictures of cute cats. C. Learning about various types of cars after purchasing the first car. D. Completing SO_P as SOUP rather than SOAP after seeing the word EAT. 24. What does the underlined word “reciprocal” in Paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Related. B. Two-way. C. Well-rounded. D. Opposite. 25. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage? A. Prime Yourself to Be Happier B. Share Happiness to Enhance Wellbeing C. why Gratitude Is Important in Psychology D. How Happy Chemicals Affect People’s Thoughts 第二节(共5小题;每小题3分共15分) 阅读下面短文和问题，根据短文内容和每小题后的具体要求，在相应题号后的横线上写下相关信息，完成对该问题的回答。 I have a special rule for travel; never carry a map. I prefer to ask for directions. Sometimes I get lost,but I usually don’t mind. I can practice a new language, meet new people, and learn new customs. And I find out about different“styles”of giving directions every time I ask, “How can I get to the post office?” Foreign tourists are often confused in Japan because most streets don’t have names. In Japan, people use landmarks in their directions instead of street names. For example, the Japanese will say to travelers, “Go straight down to the corner. Turn left at the big hotel and go past a fruit market. The post office is across from the bus stop.” In the countryside of the American Midwest, there are not usually many landmarks. There are no mountains, so the land is very flat; in many places there are no towns, or buildings within miles. Instead of landmarks, people will tell you directions and distances. In Kansas or Iowa, for instance, people will say,“Go north two miles. Turn east, and then go another mile. ” People in Los Angeles, California, have no idea of distance on the map: they measure distance in Los Angeles in time, not miles. “How far away is the post office?” you ask. “Oh,” they answer, “it’s about five minutes from here.” You say, “Yes, but how many miles away is it?” They don’t know. People in Greece sometimes do not even try to give directions because tourists seldom understand the Greek language. Instead a Greek person will often say, “Follow me.” Then he’ll lead you through the streets of the city to the post office. Sometimes a person doesn’t know the answer to your question. What happens in this situation? A New Yorker might say “Sorry, I have no idea.” But in Yucatan, Mexico, no one answers “I don’t know.” People in Yucatan believe that “I don’t know” is impolite. They usually give an answer, often a wrong one. A tourist can get very, very lost in Yucatan! One thing will help you everywhere-in Japan, the United States, Greece, Mexico, or any other place. You might not understand a person’s words, but you can probably understand the person’s body language: He or she will usually turn and then point in the correct direction. Go in that direction, and you may find the post office. 26. What is the writer’s special rule for travel? (不多于四个单词) _______________________________________________________________________________ 27.
