A

Dear Dr. Jeffers,

My three-year-old son loves it when I dig my fingers into his sides and tickle (胳肢)

him until he laughs uncontrollably. The other day I noticed him trying to tickle himself but

he couldn’t do it. Why not?

— Glenn Lewis, Vancouver, Canada Dear Mr. Lewis,

It’s because of how the brain works. The brain is trained to know what to pay attention

to and what to ignore. It causes us to ignore physical feelings we expect to happen, but it causes a mild panic reaction when there is an unexpected feeling. For example, you don’t notice how your shoulder feels while you’re walking down the street. But if someone comes up behind you and touches you lightly on the shoulder, you may jump in fear. It’s that unexpected part that causes the tickle reaction.

—Dr. J.

21.What can we learn from the answer to the first question?

A.Some equipment is able to read human m inds.

https://www.360docs.net/doc/9c1563446.html,puter programs can copy brain processes.

C.Some progress has been made in mind reading.

D.Test subjects have been used to make decisions.

22.People laugh when tickled by others because the feeling is .

A. comfortable

B. unexpected

C. funny

D. painful

23.Who has got a little child according to the text?

A. Ms. Leon.

B. Mr. Moeller.

C. Dr. Jeffers.

D. Mr. Lewis.

B

Seeing a volcano erupt is a wonderful experience, and you can really feel the heat by climbing to the summit of Pacaya for a close-up view. There are guided tours every day up this highly active volcano from Antigua, giving travelers a chance to see Mother Nature at her most powerful.

Pacaya is an easy drive from Antigua, a beautiful city with many colorful houses along its old streets that are turned into art-works during its Holy Week festival. No matter when you come to Antigua, you won’t miss the Pacaya-tour companies.

But climbing Pacaya is no easy job: it is 2,560 meters high, and reaching the summit takes two to three hours of seemingly one-step-forward and two-step-back movements. As you climb,

you hear the dull sounds of eruptions high above. Steaming, hot remains from recent eruptions begin to line the path as you near the active summit: the Mckenney Cone (火山锥). Just as though you were going to walk over to the edge of the cone, the road turns to the left and up to the relative safety of the old, inactive summit.

Many tours are timed so that you arrive at the cone of the volcano in plenty of time for sunset and the full contrast between the erupting red lava and the darkening sky. On a good day the view from the summit is extremely exciting. The active mouth boils, sending red lava over its sides, and once in a while shoots hot steams up to 100 meters into the air. There is a strong bad smell in the air even if you take care to be upwind of the cone. As evening turns deeper into the night, the burning lava quietly falls down the side of the volcano. For you, too, it is time to get down.

24.Antigua is a city .

A.that gives a close-up view of Pacaya

B.that is famous for its tour agencies

C.where the daring Pacaya tour starts

D.where people can enjoy cultural festivals

25.Climbing to the McKenney Cone, people will .

A.walk directly to the active summit

B.hear the continuous loud noise from above

C.make greater efforts than to other summits

D.see a path lined with remains of earlier eruptions

26.Many tours are timed for people to .

A.get down the mountain in time when night falls

B.avoid the smell from the upwind d irection

C.enjoy the fantastic eruption against the darkening sky

D.appreciate the scenery of the Pacaya mountain

27.What is the main purpose of this passage?

A.To attract tourists to Pacaya.

B.To describe the beauty of Pacaya.

C.To introduce guided tours to Pacaya.

D.To explain the power of nature at Pacaya.

C

Diet Coke, diet Pepsi, diet pills, no-fat diet, vegetable diet… We are surrounded by the word “diet” everywhere we look and listen. We have so easily been attracted by the promise and potential of diet products that we have stopped thinking about what diet products are doing to us. We are paying for products that harm us psychologically and physically.

Diet products significantly weaken us psychologically. On one level, we are not allowing our brains to admit that our weight problems lie not in actually losing the weight, but in controlling the consumption of fatty, high-calorie, unhealthy foods. Diet products allow us to jump over the thinking stage and go straight for the scale ( 秤) instead. All we have to do is to swallow or recognize the word “diet” in food labels.

On another level, diet products have greater psychological effects. Every time we have a zero-calorie drink, we are telling ourselves without our awareness that we don’t have to work to get results. Diet products make people believe that gain comes without pain, and that life can be without resistance and struggle.

The danger of diet products lies not only in the psychological effects they have on us, but also in the physical harm that they cause. Diet foods can indirectly harm our bodies because consuming them instead of healthy foods means we are preventing our bodies from having basic nutrients. Diet foods and diet pills contain zero calorie only because the diet industry has created chemicals to produce these wonder products. Diet products may not be nutritional, and the chemicals that go into diet products are potentially dangerous.

Now that we are aware of the effects that diet products have on us, it is time to seriously think about buying them. Losing weight lies in the power of minds, not in the power of chemicals. Once we realize this, we will be much better able to resist diet products, and therefore prevent the psychological and physical harm that comes from using them.

28.From Paragraph 1, we can l earn that .

A.people are fed up with diet products

B.diet products are misleading people

C.diet products fail to bring out people’s potential

D.people have difficulty in choosing diet products

29.One psychological effect of diet products is that people tend to .

A.try out a variety of diet foods

B.hesitate before they enjoy diet foods

C.watch their weight rather than their diet

D.pay attention to their own eating habits

30.In Paragraph 3, “gain comes without pain”probably means .

A.diet products bring no h arm

B.diet products have no c alorie

C.it costs little to stay healthy

D.losing weight is effortless

31.Diet products indirectly affect people physically because such products .

B.are over-consumed

C.are short of chemicals

D.provide too much energy

The values of artistic works,according to cultural relativism ( 相对主义), are simply reflections of local and economic conditions. Such a view, however, fails to explain the ability of some works of art to excite the human mind across cultures and through c enturies.

History has witnessed the endless production of Shakespearean plays in every major language of the world. It is never rare to find that Mozart packs Japanese concert hall, as Japanese painter Hiroshige does Paris galleries. Unique works of this kind are different from today’s popular art, even if they began as works of popular art. They have set themselves apart in their timeless appeal and will probably be enjoyed for centuries into the future.

In a 1757 essay, the philosopher David Hume argued that because “the general principles of tastes are uniform ( 不变的) in human nat ure,” the value of some works of art might be essentially permanent. He observed that Homer was still admired after 2000 years. Works of this type, he believed, spoke to deep and unvarying features of human nature and could continue to exist over centuries.

Now researchers are applying scientific methods to the study of the universality of art. For example, evolutionary psychology is being used by literary scholars to explain the long-lasting themes and plot devices in fiction. The structures of musical pieces are now open to experimental analysis as never before. Research findings seem to indicate that the creation by a great artist is as permanent an achievement as the discovery by a great scientist.

32.According to the passage, what do we know about cultural r elativism?

A.It explains the history of artistic works.

B.It introduces different cultural values.

C.It relates artistic values to local conditions.

D.It excites the human mind throughout the world.

33.In Paragraph 2, the artists are mentioned to show that .

A.great arts start as popular arts

B.popular arts are hardly different from great arts

C.the charm of great arts is universal and l asting

D.great artists are skilled at combing various cultures

34.According to Hume, some works of art can exist for centuries because .

A.they are results of scientific study

B.they establish general principles of art

C.they are created by the world’s greatest artists

D.they appeal to unchanging features of human nature

35.Which of the following serve as the title of the passage?

A. Are Popular Arts Universal?

B. Are Great Arts Permanent?

C. Is Human Nature Uniform?

D. Is Cultural Relativism Scientific?

Living in an urban area with green spaces has a long-lasting positive impact on people’s mental well-being, a study has suggested. UK researchers found moving to a green space had a sustained positive effect, unlike pay rises or promotions, which only provided a short-term boost. Co-author Mathew White, from the European Centre for Environment and Human Health at the University of Exeter, UK, explained that the study showed people living in greener urban areas were displaying fewer signs of depression or anxiety.

36 For example, they strive for promotion or pay rises, or they get married. But the trouble with all those things is that within six months to a year, people are back to their original baseline levels of well-being. 37 To put it in other words, they don’t make us happy in the long term.

Dr. White and his team wanted to see whether living in greener urban areas had a lasting positive effect on people’s sense of well-being or whether the effect also disappeared after a period of time. 38 He said, “It is unlike many of the other things that we think will make us happy.” He observed that people living in green spaces were less stressed.39

With a growing body of evidence establishing a link between urban green spaces and a positive impact on human well-being, Dr. White said, “ 40 What we really need at a policy level is to decide where the money will come from to help support good quality local green spaces.”

A.The data they collected showed even after three years, mental health was still better.

B.People do many things to make themselves happier.

C.The greener the living place is, the greater mental health one enjoys.

D.So, these things are not sustainable.

E.The government should involve local residents in building more green spaces in cities.

F.There’s growing interest among public policy officials, but the trouble is who funds it.

G.And less stressed people made more sensible decisions and communicated better.

A boy was walking home from school when he saw a large, tempting ( 诱人的) apple on one of the branches of an apple tree hanging out over a tall fence.

He thought if only he had something to 48 on. His school bag wouldn’t give enough height and he didn’t want to 49 the things inside, like his lunch box and pencil case.

He had tried everything he could think of. Not seeing any other 53 , he gave up and started to walk 54 . At first, he felt angry and disappointed thinking about how hungry he had become from his 55 and how much he wanted that particular apple. The more he

56 like this, the more unhappy he became.

57 , the boy of our story was a pretty smart guy, even if he couldn’t always get what

he wanted. He began to say to himse lf: “This isn’t 58 ! I don’t have the apple and I’m feeling 59 . There’s just nothing more I can do to get the apple, which is unchangeable. But we are supposed to be able to 60 our feelings. If that’s the case, what can I do to feel better?”

Scientists say crocodiles have outlived dinosaurs 61 some 65 million years. One reason why they are such good 62 (survive) is that they can go for a very long time

without eating. And they are expert hunters, 63 (use) their strong jaws to bite their prey and then swallow it whole. When they lose a tooth they grow one right back. A crocodile can go

through 8,000 64 (tooth) in one lifetime!

共12 页第10 页

What does the expression “crocodile tears” mean? Simply 65 (put), “crocodile tears”are fake sadness. You pretend to cry and feel bad for something when in fact you could not care 66 (little). A great word to describe it is insincere. The phrase “crocodile tears” comes from an old myth that crocodiles would shed tears while eating their prey. A religious worker wrote that 67 a crocodile found a man by the water, it would kill him if it could. Then the crocodile would cry tears on the man, but then finally swallow 68 (he). Another myth suggests 69 animals are very crafty indeed. Crocodiles, the story goes, would cry tears as a false show of guilt or grief to trick their prey. The prey would come closer and then become dinner.

Scientists explain that crocodiles DO create tears, but they do not cry. The fluid helps to clean their eyes. Crying is purely emotional and it 70 (reserve) for us humans.

Dear James,

I am delighted to hear from you and feel excited about your intention of university study in China. You are warmly welcome!

Peking University is on top of my recommendation list. It’s appealing to students home and abroad because of its high academic level and abundant cultural diversity. So it has been my ideal university, for which I have worked hard many years. To be frank, studying for a degree in a different country isn’t easy. You’d better equip yourself with the basic Chinese language skills in addition to some core knowledge about Chinese customs. Of course, your wonderful academic competency is a must as well.

Let’s work hard together and hope to meet you there! Best wishes,

听力文本：Text 1 Yours, Li Hua

M: It’s 8:20. I know the station gives a 10-minute news update every hour on the hour, but when is the weather report?

W: 15 minutes after the news.

Text 2

M: Would you like to come with me to get a keyboard? Mine keeps shutting off.

W: Sure, that sounds like a good idea. I’ve been thinking about getting a new mouse for my computer, and they have both of those at the electronics store.

Text 3

M: The music and flowers are lovely.

W: Yes, and the bride is so beautiful. Look at the groom. He looks so happy.

M: Yes. They were meant to be together.

Text 4

W: Do you still work for the bank?

M: No. There was too much pressure, so I quit.

W: How is your new job?

M: It’s not stressful at all, but I’m paid much less now.

Text 5

W: What do you think of my paper, Professor Wang?

M: It’s good, but you can still do better.

W: You mean I need to completely rewrite the paper?

M: No, you just need to make a few corrections. I’ve marked the places for you.

Text 6

W: Of course I’ll pick you up, Kevin. You’re my favorite cousin. Great. I’ll see you at three o’clo ck! Have a great trip! Bye. (Phone rings.) H ello?

M: Claudia？It’s Professor Albee.

W: Oh, hi, Professor Albee.

M: Well, Ms Leska is sick today. She has a class from 2 to 4pm. Can you teach her class?

W: Oh, sorry. My cousin is visiting this week from Seattle and he arrives today at three. Well…wait. Ms Leska always helps me—I’d love to help her out. Listen, my roommate Tara can go to the bus station and meet my cousin.

M: That’s great! Thanks a lot. See you at 1:30.

Text 7

M: What did you think of the comedy, Ellen?

W：The lines were very humorous. But the plot was not so good. I think that they usually don’t have a good story to tell, but I really liked the leading male character.

M: I agree with you. I also thought the music was great—it was so beautiful, and the scenes in the movie were fantastic. Anyway, I think it was definitely worth watching.

W: So would you recommend this movie to anyone?

M: Yes, I think I’ll recommend it to David.

W: But adventure is always his favorite.

M: Yes. But this comedy may help him with his writing project. Did you know that he is writing a drama?

W: Ah, yes, that’s right.

Text 8

W: Who wrote this? It’s completely wrong!

M: What do you mean?

W: Just look at it! The accident wasn’t on Thursday! It was on Tuesday! The accident happened at lunchtime! Don’t you remember what happened? It was a girl, not a boy, lying on the road, and she hadn’t tripped over anything. She had just slipped because the road was wet from the rain.

M: OK. Everything about the truck and the car is right?

W: Why do you think there was a truck? It was a minibus, and the minibus driver was fine. The person who flew out of the minibus was a passenger sitting at the front.

M: So it was the passenger on the minibus who was injured. I guess the information about the car

is correct?

W: It is, but I think that is personal information and we shouldn’t print it in the newspaper, so cancel the entire paragraph.

M: OK.

Text 9

W: Would you please describe the nature of your farm?

M: Sure. I mainly grow corn and wheat for feed crops. I do only grow cotton when the cotton prices are better.

W: How many employees do you have?

M: 10 together. Seven of them are part-time employees.

W: do you pay them hourly or are they salaried?

M: I pay them by the hour because sometimes they only work a few hours and other times they work many hours. Therefore, it wouldn’t be fair for them to get a weekly or monthly salary year round.

W: How many hours do you work as the owner?

M: In the winter I work eight hours a day, but in the spring, summer and autumn I work 12 to 13 hours a day. Many times our work depends on the weather. For example, if the crops need water and it hasn’t rained, the employees must irrigate the fields which can take many hours. At other times, I spend my time in checking my fields for pests, and if I find any, I have to apply farm chemicals. If my machinery breaks down, I have to call in the repairman to fix it. Of course, I must also make sure any crops get harvested when they are ready.

W：If you were to start a new farm, what changes would you make?

M: I wouldn’t make many changes. Right now my farm is very successful.
