My father was raised in a fatherless home at a time when the family of five struggled

When we children became 16 that other children got pocket money from their

parents, we made a(n) 17 to ask our father from some. Immediately his face turned stone-cold, and he said, “If you’re old enough to ask, you’re old enough to 18 .” And we had to seek odd jobs about the neighborhood.

He didn’t 19 his attitude as we grew into adulthood. There was a time when

A special laboratory at the University of Chicago is busy only at night. It is a dream laboratory where researchers are at work studying dreamers. Their findings have discovered that everyone dreams from three to seven times a night, although in ordinary life a person may remember none or only one of his dreams.

第 - 3 - 页 共 12 页

While the subjects—usually students—sleep, special machines record their brain waves and eye movements as well as the body movements that signal the end of a dream. Surprisingly, all subjects sleep soundly.

Observers report that a person usually fidgets(烦躁不安) before a dream. Once the dream has started, his body relaxes and his eyes become more active, as if the curtain had gone up on a show. As soon as the machine shows that the dream is over, a buzzer wakens the sleeper. He sits up, records his dream, and goes back to sleep—perhaps to dream some more.

Researchers have found that if the dreamer is wakened immediately after his dream, he can usually recall the entire dream. If he is allowed to sleep even five more minutes, his memory of the dream will have disappeared.

36. According to the passage, researchers at the University of Chicago are studying

____.

A. contents of dreams B. dreamers while they dream C. the meaning of dreams D. the progress of sleeping 37. Their finding has discovered that _____. A. everyone dreams every night B. dreams are easily remembered C. dreams are likely to be frightening D. One person dreams only one dream a night

38. The machines being used in the experiment record _____. A. the depth of sleep

B. the subjects’ brain waves and eye movements C. how many dreams a person has D. what a sleeper dreams during his sleep

39. A person would be most likely to remember the dream that _____. A. was of most interest to him

B. occurred immediately after he went to sleep C. occurred just before he woke up D. was the longest one to him

Without proper planning, tourism can cause problems. For example, too many tourists can crowd public places that are also enjoyed by the inhabitants(居民) of a country. If tourists create too much traffic, the inhabitants become angry and unhappy. They begin to dislike tourists and to treat them impolitely. They forget how much tourism can help the country’s economy. It is important to think about the people of a destination(目的地) country and how tourism affects them. Tourism should help a country keep the customs and beauty that attract tourists. Tourism should also advance health and happiness of local inhabitants.

Too much tourism can be a problem. If tourism grows too quickly, people must leave other jobs to work in the tourism industry. This means that other parts of the country’s economy can suffer.

All of these support facilities cost money. If they are not used because there are not enough tourists, jobs and money are lost.

40. Which of the following has most probably been discussed in the paragraph that goes

before the passage?

A. It is not important to develop tourism. B. Building roads and hotels is important.

C. Support facilities are highly necessary. D. Planning is of great importance to tourism.

41. Too much tourism can cause all these problems except _____.

第 - 5 - 页 共 12 页

A. a bad effect on other industries

B. a change of the customs of the country

C. air and water pollution D. pressure on traffic

42. Not enough tourism can lead to _____. A. the fact that some people may be out of work B. an increase in tourist attractions

C. the higher cost of support facilities

D. a rise in price and a fall in pay

43. The word “handle” in the last paragraph most probably means _____. A. carry away B. pick up C. get in D. take down

C

Why do men die earlier than women? The latest research makes it known that the reason could be that men’s hearts go into rapid decline when they reach middle age.

The latest study of the effects of ageing on the heart has found that women’s longevity may be linked to the fact that their hearts do not lose their pumping power with age.

“We have found that the power of the male heart falls by 20-25 percent between 18 and 70 years of age,” said the head of the study, David Goldspink of Liverpool John Moores University in the UK.

“Within the heart there are millions of cells that enable it to beat. Between the age of 20 and 70, one-third of those cells die and are not replaced in men,” said Goldspink. “This is part of the ageing process.”

What surprises scientists is that the female heart sees very little loss of these cells. A healthy 70-year-old woman’s heart could perform almost as well as a 20-year-old one’s.

44. The text mainly talks about ________.

A. men’s heart cells B. women’s ageing process、 C. the gender difference D. hearts and long life 45. According to the text, the UK scientists have known that ________.

A. women have more cells than men when they are born B. women can replace the cells that enable the heart to beat C. the female heart loses few of the cells with age D. women never lose their pumping power with age 46. We can know from the passage that ________.

A. the reason why ageing takes a greater loss on the male heart has been found out B. scientists are on the way to finding out why the male heart loses more of the cells C. the team has done something to prevent the male from suffering the greater loss D. women over 70 could lose more heart cells than those at the age of 20

With the popularity of Harry Potter novels, the number of children applying to boarding schools has risen, many of them hoping to find their own version of Hogwarts. However, others have interpreted this trend as a reaction to longer working hours and the break up of more marriages. The boarding schools of fiction are presented as one long midnight feast with pillow fights making firm friendships. However, some people say the reality is children having more homesickness and a lack of individual attention. Modern boarding schools have done much to get rid of the image of the

第 - 7 - 页 共 12 页

mass dormitories with 40 or more beds in one room, some going as far as providing private rooms with bathrooms. Similarly, they make great announcements for their academic advantage, particularly in light of the increase in exams, homework and university entrance requirements facing children wishing to succeed in the modern world.

However, parents are a child’s most natural support and best role models to learn from. If they are separated from them for long periods of time, this may damage their relationship and leave the child feeling anxious or alone. Schools are unlikely to be able to copy the detailed knowledge of each individual child that a parent has and therefore cannot be as effective in supporting the child. To sum up, boarding schools have both their advantages and disadvantages, so it is up to you to decide whether to send your children to boarding schools or not. 47. What do we know from the passage?

A. More and more children go and visit Hogwarts on their own. B. Pillow fights in boarding schools make firm friendships in reality.

C. More children want to go to boarding schools because of Harry Potter novels. D. There aren’t special schools for the particularly talented children.

48. What kind of schools may be the most suitable for the so-called troubled-teens? A. sports academies B. Wilderness schools C. Conventional schools D. Stage schools 49. We learn from Paragraph 4 that __________.

A. teachers of boarding schools are the best examples for children to learn from

第 - 8 - 页 共 12 页

B. children can be more independent if they are separated from their parents C. parents know their children better than teachers of boarding schools D. schools are much more effective than parents in supporting children 50. What is the author’s opinion of boarding schools?

A. Neutral （中立的） B. Negative C. Positive D. Critical

第二节：根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。（共5小题：每小题2分，满分10分）

Empathy （共鸣）

Last year, researchers from the University of Michigan reported that empathy, the ability to understand other people, among college students had dropped sharply over the past 10 years. __51__ Today, people spend more time alone and are less likely to join groups and clubs. Jennifer Freed, a co-director of a teen program, has another explanation. Turn on the TV, and you’re showered with news and reality shows full of people fighting, competing, and generally treating one another with no respect. __52__ There are good reasons not to follow those bad examples. Humans are socially related by nature. __53__ Researchers have also found that empathetic teenagers are more likely to have high self-respect. Besides, empathy can be a cure for loneliness, sadness, anxiety, and fear.

Empathy is also an indication of a good leader. In fact, Freed says, many top companies report that empathy is one of the most important things they look for in new managers. ____ “Academics are important. But if you don’t have emotional (情感的) intelligence, you won’t be as successful in work or in your love life,” she says.

What’s the best way to up your EQ (情商）? For starters, let down your guard and really listen to others. __55__ To really develop empathy, you’d better volunteer at a nursing home or a hospital, join a club or a team that has a diverse membership, have a “sharing circle” with your family, or spend time caring for pets at an animal shelter.

A. Everyone is different, and levels of empathy differ from person to person. B. That could be because so many people have replaced face time with screen time,

the researchers said.

C. “One doesn’t develop empathy by having a lot of opinions and doing a lot of

talking,” Freed says.

D. Humans learn by example—and most of the examples on it are anything but empathetic.

E. Empathy is a matter of learning how to understand someone else—both what they think and how they feel.

F. Good social skills—including empathy—are a kind of “emotional intelligence” that will help you succeed in many areas of life.

G．Having relationships with other people is an important part of being human—and

having empathy is decisive to those relationships.

When I was elementary school student aged ten, I took part in a singing competition in our city. This was my first time to be in a singing competition. In the day of the competition, I was asked to enter into a studio room, which there was only one person and a piano. The man asks me to sing in front of the microphone, followed his piano playing. My mother was waiting for me outside the studio. I thought that I sang better at the time. So when I finished and walked out the studio, my mother asked, “What happened to your voice? Why couldn’t we hear you?” Then, I realized that I forget to switch on the microphone.
