　　三、阅读理解

　　A

　　For some people, music is no fun at all. About four percent of the population is what scientists call “amusic”. People who are amusic are born without the ability to recognize or reproduce musical notes. Amusic people often cannot tell the difference between two songs. Amusics can only hear the difference between two notes if they are very far apart on the musical scale.

　　As a result, songs sound like noise to an amusic. Many amusics compare the sound of music to pieces of metal hitting each other. Life can be hard for amusics. Their inability to enjoy music set them apart from others. It can be difficult for other people to identify with their condition. In fact, most people cannot begin to grasp what it feels like to be amusic. Just going to a restaurant or a shopping mall can be uncomfortable or even painful. That is why many amusics intentionally stay away from places where there is music. However, this can result in withdrawal and social isolation. “I used to hate parties,” says Margaret, a seventy-year-old woman who only recently discovered that she was amusic. By studying people like Margaret, scientists are finally learning how to identify this unusual condition.

　　Scientists say that the brains of amusics are different from the brains of people who can appreciate music. The difference is complex, and it doesn’t involve defective hearing. Amusics can understand other nonmusical sounds well. They also have no problems understanding ordinary speech. Scientists compare amusics to people who just can’t see certain colors.

　　Many amusics are happy when their condition is finally diagnosed. For years, Margaret felt embarrassed about her problem with music. Now she knows that she is not alone. There is a name for her condition. That makes it easier for her to explain. “When people invite me to a concert, I just say, ‘No thanks, I’m amusic,’” says Margaret. “I just wish I had learned to say that when I was seventeen and not seventy.”

　　31. Which of the following is true of amusics?

　　A. Listening to music is far from enjoyable for them.

　　B. They love places where they are likely to hear music.

　　C. They can easily tell two different songs apart.

　　D. Their situation is well understood by musicians.

　　32. According to paragraph 3, a person with “defective hearing”is probably one who __________.

　　A. dislikes listening to speechesB. can hear anything nonmusical

　　C. has a hearing problemD. lacks a complex hearing system

　　33. In the last paragraph, Margaret expressed her wish that __________.

　　A. her problem with music had been diagnosed earlier

　　B. she wasseventeen years old rather than seventy

　　C. her problem could be easily explained

　　D. she was able to meet other amusics

　　34. What is the passage mainly concerned with?

　　A. Amusics’ strange behaviours.

　　B. Some people’s inability to enjoy music.

　　C. Musical talent and brain structure.

　　D. Identification and treatment of amusics.

　　B

　　Below is a selection from a popular science book.

　　If blood is red, why are veins blue?

　　Actually, veins are not blue at all. They are more of a clear, yellowish color. Although blood looks red when it’s outside the body, when it’s sitting in the vein near the surface of the skin, it’s more of a dark reddish-purple color. At the right depth, these blood-filled veins reflect less red light than the surrounding skin, making them look blue by comparison.

　　Which works harder, you heart or your brain?

　　That kind of depends on whether you’re busy thinking or busy exercising. Your heart works up to three times harder during exercise, and shifts enough blood over a lifetime to fill a supertanker. But in the long run, your brain probably tips it, because even when you’re sitting still your brain is using twice as much energy as your heart, and it takes four to five times as much blood to feed it.

　　Why do teeth fall out, and why don’t they grow back in grown-ups?

　　Baby (or “milk”) teeth do not last long; they fall out to make bigger room for bigger, stronger adult teeth later on. Adult teeth fall our when they become damaged, decayed and infected by bacteria. Once this second set of teeth has grown in, you’re done. When they’re gone, they are gone. This is because nature figures you’re set for life, and what controls regrowth of your teeth switches off.

　　Do old people shrink as they age?

　　Yes and no. Many people do get shorter as they age. But, when they do, it isn’t because they’re shrinking all over. They lose height as their spine becomes shorter and more curved due to disuse and the effect of gravity. Many (but not all) men and women do lose height as they get older. Men lose and average of 3-4 cm in height as they age, while women may lose 5 cm or more. If you live to be 200 years old, would you keep shrinking till you were, like 60 cm tall, like a little boy again? No, because old people don’t really shrink! It is not that they are growing backwards — their legs, arms and backbones getting shorter. When they do get shorter, it’s because the spine has shortened a little. Or, more often, become more bent and curved.

　　Why does spinning make you dizzy?

　　Because your brain gets confused between what you’re seeing and what you’re feeling. The brain senses that you’re spinning using special gravity-and-motion-sensing organs in your inner ear, which work together with your eyes to keep your vision balance stable. But when you suddenly stop spinning the system goes out of control, and your brain thinks you’re moving while you’re not.

　　Where do feelings and emotions come from?

　　Mostly from an ancient part of the brain called the limbic system. All mammals have this brain area — from mice to dogs, cats, and humans. So all mammals feel basic emotions like fear, pain and pleasure. But since human feelings also involve other, newer bits of the brain, we feel more complex emotions than any other animal on this planet.

　　If exercise wears you out, how can it be good for you?

　　Because our bodies adapt to everything we do to them. And as far as your body is concerned, it’s “use it, or lose it”! It’s not that exercise makes you healthy, it’s more that a lack of exercise leaves your body weak and easily affected by disease.

　　35. What is the color of blood in a vein near the surface of the skin?

　　A. BlueB. Light yellow

　　C. RedD. Dark reddish purple

　　36. Why do some old people look a little shrunken as they age?

　　A. Because their spine is in active use.

　　B. Because they are more easily affected by gravity.

　　C. Because they keep growing backwards.

　　D. Because their spine becomes more bent.

　　37. Which of the following statements about our brain is true?

　　A. In the long run, our brain probably works harder than our heart.

　　B. When our brain senses the spinning, we will feel dizzy.

　　C. The brains of the other mammals are as complex as those of humans.

　　D. Our feelings and emotions come from the most developed area in our brain.

　　38. What is the main purpose of the selection?

　　A. To give advice on how to stay healthy.

　　B. To provide information about our body.

　　C. To challenge new findings in medical research.

　　D. To report the latest discoveries in medical science.

　　C

　　It was Mother’s Day morning last year and I was doing my shopping at our local supermarket with my five-year-old son, Tenyson. As we were leaving, we found that only minutes earlier an elderly woman had fallen over at the entrance and had hit her head on the concrete. Her husband was with her, but there was blood everywhere and the woman was embarrassed and clearly in shock.

　　Walking towards the scene, Tenyson became very upset about what had happened to the couple. He said to me, “Mum, it’s not much fun falling over in front of everyone.”

　　At the front of the supermarket a charity(慈善) group had set up a stand selling cooked sausages and flowers to raise funds. Tenyson suggested that we should buy the lady a flower. “It will make her feel better,”he said. I was amazed that he’d come up with such a sweet idea. So we went over to the flower seller and asked her if we could buy a flower for the lady to cheer her up. “Just take it,” she replied. “I can’t take your money for such a wonderful gesture.”

　　By now paramedics(救援人员)had arrived, and were attending the injured woman. As we walked up to her, my son became intimidatedby all the blood and medical equipment. He said he was just too scared to go up to her. Instead I gave the flower to the woman’shusband and told him, “My son was very upset for your wife and wanted to give her this flower to make her feel better.”

　　At that, the old man started crying and said, “Thank you so much, you have a wonderful son. Happy Mother's Day to you.”

　　The man then bent down and gave his wife the flower, telling her who it was from. Though badly hurt and shaken, the old lady looked up at Tenyson with love in her eyes and gave him a little smile.

　　39. What doesthe author intend to tell us?

　　A. One can never be too careful.

　　B. Actions speak louder than words.

　　C. Love begins with a little smile.

　　D. A small act of kindness brings a great joy.

　　40. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

　　A. The elderly woman was knocked down by Tenyson.

　　B. Tenyson’s idea of buying a flower gained his mother’s support.

　　C. Tenyson’s care for the elderly woman puzzled the flower seller.

　　D. The elderly woman was moved to tears by Tenyson’s gesture.

　　41. The underlined word “intimidated”in the fourth paragraph probably means “___________”.

　　A. astonishedB. struckC. frightenedD. excited

　　D

　　In my living room, there is a plaquethat advises me to “Bloom(开花) where you are planted.”It reminds me of Dorothy. I got to know Dorothy in the early 1980s,when I was teaching Early Childhood Development through a program with Union College in Barbourville, Kentucky. The job responsibilities required occasional visits to the classroom of each teacher in the program. Dorothy stands out in my memory as one who “bloomed” in her remote area.

　　Dorothy taught in a school in Harlan County, Kentucky, Appalachian Mountain area. To get to her school from the town of Harlan, I followed a road winding around the mountain. In the eight-mile journey, I crossed the same railroad track five times, giving the possibility of getting caught by the same train five times. Rather than feeling excited by this drive through the mountains, I found it depressing. The poverty level was shocking and the small shabby houses gave me the greatest feeling of hopelessness.

　　From the moment of my arrival at the little school, all gloom(忧郁) disappeared. Upon arriving at Dorothy’s classroom, I was greeted with smiling faces and treated like a queen. The children had been prepared to show me their latest projects. Dorothy told me with a big smile that they were serving poke greens salad and cornbread for “dinner” (lunch). In case you don’t know, poke greens are a weed-type plant that grows wild, especially on poor ground.

　　Dorothy never ran out of reports of exciting activities of her students. Her enthusiasm never cooled down. When it came time to sit for the testing and interviewing required to receive her Child Development Associate Certification, Dorothy was ready. She came to the assessment and passed in all areas. Afterward, she invited me to the one-and-only steak house in the area to celebrate her victory, as if she had received her Ph.D. degree. After the meal, she placed a little box containing an old pen in my hand. She said it was a family heirloom, but to me it is a treasured symbol of appreciation and pride that cannot be matched with things.

　　42. “Early Childhood Development”in Paragraph I refers to ________.

　　A. a course given by the author

　　B. an organization sponsored by Union College

　　C. a program directed by Dorothy

　　D. an activity held by the students

　　43. Upon arriving at the classroom, the author was cheered up by ________.

　　A. the sight of poke greensB. a warm welcome

　　C. Dorothy’s latest projectsD. a big dinner made for her

　　44. What can we know about Dorothy from the last paragraph?

　　A. She was invited to a celebration at a restaurant.

　　B. She got a pen as a gift from the author.

　　C. She passed the required assessment.

　　D. She received her Ph. D. degree.

　　45. What does the author mainly intend to tell us?

　　A. Whatever you do, you must do it carefully.

　　B. Whoever you are, you deserve equal treatment

　　C. However poor you are, you have the right to education.

　　D. Wherever you are, you can accomplish your achievement.

　　三、阅读理解

　　A

　　【分析】本文是一篇说明文，讲述了一群特殊的人——amusic(没有乐感的人)，对他们而言，音乐如同噪音一般，没有任何乐趣。没有欣赏音乐的能力给他们的生活带来了诸多不便，不过，令人高兴的是，他们的这种状况目前已得到诊断，他们的大脑与能够欣赏音乐的人的大脑有所不同，而且这种差异很复杂。

　　31.【答案】A

　　【解析】考查细节理解。根据第一段中的“For some people, music is no fun at all”可知，A项正确，句意：对于某些人来说，听音乐并不是开心的事情，和A项的听音乐对他们来说远非是愉快的相同。因此，B项也是错误的。根据第一段中的“People who are amusic are born without the ability to recognize or reproduce musical notes (音调). Amusic people often cannot tell the difference between two songs.”可知，C、D两项错误。故选A。

　　32.【答案】C

　　【解析】考查推理判断。第三段的前两句讲的是不爱听音乐的人和喜欢听音乐的人是不同的，他们之间的区别很复杂，但是“have no problems understanding ordinary speech”又讲到了这些不爱听音乐的人在理解其他非音乐的声音或者演讲的时候是没有问题的，目的是为了强调他们是正常的，没有什么缺陷的，因此defective hearing指的是C项的a hearing problem，即听觉有问题。句意：他们之间的区别是很复杂的，但并不包括听觉有问题这种情况。故选C。

　　33.【答案】A

　　【解析】考查细节理解。根据最后一段中的“I just wish I had learned to say that when I was seventeen and not seventy”可知，我希望我在十七岁的时候就学会了这样说，指的是“No thanks, I’m amusic”，谢谢你，我是一个不喜欢听音乐的人，而不是到了七十岁才学会。根据最后一段可知，their condition is finally diagnosed (诊断)他们的这种状况终于最后确诊了，他们都属于amusic，但是这来的太迟了，对于Margaret来说，因为之前她总是感到很尴尬，因此她希望她年轻的时候，就可以有现在这样的诊断。故选A。

　　34.【答案】B

　　【解析】考查主旨大意。本文讲述的是不喜爱听音乐的一类人，被称之为amusic，他们之前都没有得到统一的诊断或者认识，直到现在。因此选择B项，Some people’s inability to enjoy music“一些人无法欣赏音乐”，故选B。

　　B

　　【分析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了人体的相关知识。

　　35.【答案】D

　　【解析】考查细节理解。根据第一段中的“Although blood looks red when it’s outside the body, when it’s sitting in the vein near the surface of the skin, it’s more of a dark reddish purple color.”可知选D。

　　36.【答案】D

　　四、填空题

　　46.【答案】attraction

　　【解析】前面提到成都有许多大富豪、亚洲最大的建筑以及令人叹为观止的新宾馆等，后面的but话题一转，继而描述对我来说有吸引力的事物，即"但是对像我这样的游客来说，熊猫才是成都地区最受我们喜欢的". 此处为句子的表语成分，前面有its，所以后面用名词attraction.

　　47.【答案】was allowed

　　【解析】本句考查allow sb to do sth允许某人做某事，但是此句中却没有宾语，结合前面句子“it was a great honour to be invited backstage at the not-for-profit Panda Base”可知我是得以允许接近大熊猫，故用被动语态;故答案为was allowed.

　　48.【答案】officially

　　【解析】根据句子内容The title will be given to me可知此处缺少一个用来修饰动词短语的副词，即所给词official的副词officially.

　　49.【答案】to

　　【解析】本句描述的是我与大熊猫的关联要追溯到20世纪80年代中期的一档电视节目，go back to追溯到，其中to为介词，故答案为to.

　　50. 【答案】when

　　【解析】划线处后面是一个完整的句子I was the first Western TV reporter，前面是一个标点逗号，所以此处应该是when引导的定语从句，修饰前的先行词the mid-1980s;故答案为when.

　　51. 【答案】permitted

　　【解析】前面句子已经分析when引导的定语从句成分完整，所以后面的内容为一定语修饰the first Western TV reporter，而permit与其逻辑主语I之间为动宾关系，所以用过去分词短语作后置定语;故答案为permitted.

　　52. 【答案】introducing

　　【解析】根据括号里面的提示词introduce可知，应该是使用其非谓语动词的形式，又知include后面一般跟动名词作宾语，故答案为introducing.

　　53. 【答案】its

　　【解析】既然前面提到了twin就可推断是双胞胎熊猫中的一只熊猫，所以结合所给词it可知应该是被他们的妈妈冷落，故答案为its.

　　54. 【答案】days

　　【解析】every few days意为每隔几天，故答案为days.

　　55. 【答案】the

　　【解析】本句重点考查短语one…the other..一个…另一个…，是在两者之间进行比较;故答案为the other.

　　五、写作

　　On Online Shopping

　　Nowadays, shopping through the Internet has been becoming increasingly popular among peopleand they prefer to buy almost everything they want from the internet, but I hold different opinions toward the phenomenon.

　　Online shopping can sometimes bring headaches to peoplewhen they enjoy shopping online. Firstly, the quality of the objects may not be as good as they are described and it is possible for them to buy fake goods. In addition, some peoplefind it very hard to make a change when they are not satisfied with the commodities bought online.Last but not least, we need to wait for the delivery package, which wastes time, especially in some holidays like Double Eleven.

　　From what I have stated above, it’s reasonable to draw a conclusion that the disadvantages of online shopping are obvious.And my suggestion is thatregulations and rules should be carried out to screen and check Internet shopping providers. If so, I believe a promising online shopping is just awaiting us.
