ADesign your own adventure spent at IZE’s Blue Creek Field Station by choosing two activities per day from the list below.Short Cave Hike:2-hour activity where you will be exposed to the ultimate tropical rainforest experience.At every turn along the trail,a novel experience awaits.Perhaps it’s a trail of leaf cutter ants or a delicate tree snake.You will follow your Maya Guides up a steep incline(斜坡)to the entrance of one of the most spectacular limestone caves in Belize.Ethnobotany Walk:3-hour activity where you will explore the medical and cookery uses of the local herbs,plants and trees.The Mayans were masters in using the jungle’s natural resources for theirmedical needs.You will learn about the vines（藤蔓）that store drinking water and other remarkable remedies(疗法)that nature offers.You will get a first-hand look at the crops the Maya harvest such as cocoa,mango,rice,beans,etc.Hokeb Ha Cave Hike:Spend time in one of the most spectacular limestone caves in Belize.The name of this cave means“where the water enters the earth.”Stalactites(钟乳石)hang from the ceiling, and colonies of bats live in the darkest gaps.You can also search for Mayan artifacts over1，000years old.Lizard Hike:2-4hour activity where you will swim and hike along the clear blue river as you look for lizards in the tall trees.Can you identify which species？Is it the spectacular dinosaur that looks like green lizards?Belize is home to many of the3,800species of lizards in the world!21.During the short Cave Hike,you______.A.will be lost in the tropical forestB.may enjoy unexpected views on the wayC.can be bitten by the tree snakes occasionallyD.need to follow the track of ants in the forests22.What activity can improve your skills of living in the wild?A.Ethnobotany Walk.B.Short Cave Hike.C.Lizard Hike.D.Hokeb Ha Cave Hike.23.We can infer that Hokeb Ha Cave might be______.A.the source of the water on the EarthB.the habitat of bats in BelizeC.the entrance to the earthD.home to ancient MayansBShe Walked Through FireOn Thanksgiving weekend,the H effelmire family gathered for a meal at their home.After dinner, the family went down to the finished basement to relax except Charlotte’s father,Eric,who was in thegarage to fix his truck.Around8pm,Charlotte decided to check on her dad.She walked through the kitchen.When she opened the side door to the garage,black smoke rose up into the kitchen.She could barely make out her father lying on his back,trapped under the truck.He’d removed the front passenger-side tyre and raised the truck on a jack(千斤顶).The truck had slipped off the jack,and now the whole weight of the wheel was on his chest and shoulders.Charlotte ran to the front of the truck and struggled to lift it.Eric was still conscious,and he yelled,“You got it!One more try!”She tried again and was able to tip the truck backward just enough for her to pull her dad by the shirt with both hands from under the truck.She dragged him across the garage and20feet down the driveway.Then she ran back to the garage,which had burst into flames.“I was afraid the car was going to explode,”says Charlotte,so she climbed into the truck,which faced forward,turned the key,and pressed the gas pedal(油门).The car slowly rolled out,the metal wheel scratching loudly against the concrete.Safely on the driveway,Charlotte stopped the truck and ran back to the basement.“There’s a fire! Everybody get out!”she yelled as she picked up her three-month-old niece and ran out.Outside,she handed the baby to her mom,and then ran around to the burning garage.She picked up a garden hose(水管)and sprayed the fire while calling911.A few minutes later,firefighters and an ambulance arrived.Charlotte was treated for second-degree burns on both her feet and face.Her dad had injuries on his chest and shoulders,as well as minor burns on his face.The garage and the house were damaged but the family survived.The Heffelmires are staying in an apartment while their house is rebuilt.“Charlotte is a remarkable kid,”says her dad.Charlotte,however,simply says,“I was saving my family and my house.I wasn’t going to let my dad die.”24.Eric got trapped because______.A.the kitchen was on fireB.the wheel fell off the truckC.the front tyre was removedD.the truck slipped off the jack25.Which of the following is the correct order of the events?a.Charlotte called the firefighters.b.Charlotte saved Eric from under the truck.c.Charlotte drove the truck out of the garage.d.Charlotte warned the family to leave the house.A.b,c,a,dB.a,b,d,cC.a,c,b,dD.b,c,d,a26.As a result of the fire,______.A.the truck explodedB.the house was not fit to live inC.the three-month-old baby was injuredD.Charlotte was burned on her chest and shoulders27.It can be inferred from the passage that Charlotte is______.A.proud and clear-headedB.modest and easy-goingC.calm and quick-mindedD.independent and self-centredCAlmost everyone agrees on the hot dog basics:a long bread roll with a hot sausage inside it.And that’s what has led to a big question—is a hot dog a sandwich,or is it in a special category of its own?“People have really strong opinions on both sides,”says Eric Mittenthal,president of the National Hot Dog and Sausage Council(NHDSC).In November,the council published an official announcement ruling that the hot dog is not a sandwich.It argues that the hot dog is too significant to be considered“just a sandwich.”The council admits that the hot dog was once the“Frankfurter sandwich,”but says that people no longer use that name.Today,no one would call a hot dog eating contest a sandwich eating contest.But others disagree.The U.S.Department of Agriculture(USDA)includes a sausage inside abread roll in its sandwich category.But it also calls the food a“sandwich type product”.In May, dictionary publisher Merriam Webster said that the hot dog is a sandwich.The Merriam Webster’s Collegiate Dictionary,11th Edition,defines a sandwich as“two or more slices of bread or a split roll having a filling in between”or“one slice of bread covered with food”.The announcement fueled a heated debate among hot dog fans.If hot dogs are sandwiches,where do you draw the line?Are burritos(玉米馅饼)sandwiches too?This debate won’t stop Americans from eating piles of hot dogs this summer.During peak hot dog season—from Memorial Day to Labor Day—Americans will eat about7billion of them.That’s 818hot dogs consumed every second.People love hot dogs so much that in2015,a hot dog emoji was released so people can easily tweet or text an image of the famous food.This may come in handy soon, since July is National Hot Dog Month.28.Who thinks that the hot dog is special enough to be in a category of its own?DA.B.NHDSC. C.The author.D.Merriam-Webster. 29What do some hot dog fans think of the definition of a sandwich in the mentioned dictionary?A.It seems too wide.B.It is quite satisfactory.C.It is obviously too narrow.D.It is difficult to understand.30.What does the underlined word“emoji”probably mean?A.A small image used in electronic communications that symbolizes something.B.A poster used to advertise hot dogs.C.A toy given by a hot dog seller.D.A facial expression posted on a letter as a stamp.31.Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A.The history of hot dogs.B.Different kinds of sandwiches.C.Do Americans really love hot dogs?D.Is a hot dog a sandwich?DMany people will be familiar with automated writing through Gmail.Smart Reply provides brief answers to routine emails.If someone asks“Do you want to meet at3pm?”,Gmail offers one-click responses such as“Sure!”The New Yorker’s John Seabrook recently described a more powerful version of this technology, called GPT-2,which can ably mimic(模拟)his magazine’s style.Such systems use a digital network of billions of artificial“neurons”(神经元)with virtual“synapses”—the connections between neurons—that strengthen as the network“learns”,in this case from40gigabytes（千兆字节）—worth of online writing.The version Mr.Seabrook tested was polished with back-issues of the New Yorker.The metaphor of the brain is attractive,but“neurons”and“synapses”deserve those scare-quotes (双引号).The system is merely making some—admittedly very complex—statistical guesses about which words follow which in a New Yorker-style sentence.What escapes computers is creativity.They cannot create a topic or goal on their own,much less plan how to get there with logic and style.At various points in the online version of his article,readers can see how GPT-2would have carried on writing Mr.Seabrook’s piece for him.The writing gives the impression of being human.But on closer inspection it is empty,even incoherent.Meaningless writing is the preserve of artificial intelligence.But to truly write,you must first have something to puters do not.They await instructions.To compose meaningful essays,the likes of GPT-2will first have to be integrated with databases of real-world knowledge.32.Why does the author mention Gmail in the first paragraph?A.To prepare for the introduction of the topic.B.To advertise the powerful Gmail.C.To describe the feature of Gmail.D.To prove the strength of the Gmail.33.In what way is GPT-2more powerful than Gmail?A.It is creative.B.It has neurons with synapses.C.It can offer quick answers.D.It can follow a certain writing style.34.What can we learn from the last two paragraphs?A.GPT-2is powerful because it is integrated to real-world knowledge.B.GPT-2has already been able to write meaningful essays.C.GPT-2still has a long way to write like humans.D.GPT-2can help Mr.Seabrook with writing very well.35.Where is the passage taken from?A.A brochure.B.An advertisement.C.A magazine.D.An essay.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）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。

EmailBDoes happiness have a scent?When someone is happy, can you smell it?You can usually tell when someone is happy based on seeing them smile, hearing them laugh or perhaps from receiving a big hug. But canyou also smell their happiness? Surprising new research suggests thathappiness does indeed have a scent, and that the experience of happiness can be transmitted through smell, reports .For the study, 12 young men were shown videos meant to bring about a variety of emotions while researchers gathered sweat samples from them. All of the men were healthy and none of them were drug users or smokers, and all were asked to abstain from drinking or eating smelly foods during the study period.Those sweat samples were then given to 36 equally healthy young women to smell, while researchers monitored their reactions. Only women were selected to smell the samples, apparently because previous research has shown that women have a better sense of smell than men and are also more sensitive to emotional signaling—though it's unclear why only men were chosen to produce the scents.Researchers found that the behavior of the women after smelling the scents—particularly their facial expressions—indicated a relationship between the emotional states of the men who produced the sweat and the women who sniffed them.“Human sweat produced when a person is happy brings about a state similar to happiness in somebody who breathes this smell,” said study co-author Gun Semin, a professor at Koc University in Turkey.This is a fascinating finding because it not only means that happiness does have a scent, but that the scent is capable of transmitting the emotion to others. The study also found that other emotions, such as fear, seem to carry a scent too. This ensures previous research suggesting that some negative emotions have a smell, but it is the first time this has proved to be true of positive feelings.Researchers have yet to isolate(分离) exactly what the chemical pound for the happiness smell is, but you might imagine what the potential applications for such afinding could be. Happiness perfumes, for instance, could be invented. Scent therapies（香味疗法）could also be developed to help people through depression or anxiety.Perhaps the most surprising result of the study, however, is our broadened understanding of how emotions get municated, and also how our own emotions are potentially managed through our social context and the emotional states of those around us.5. What is the main finding of the new research?A. Pleasant feelings can be smelt out.B. Negative emotions have a smell.C. Men produce more sweats.D. Women have a better sense of smell.6. The underlined part “abstain from” in Paragrap h 3 probably means _________.A.continueB. practiceC. avoidD. try7. What is the application value of the new research?A. Perfumes could help people understand each other.B. Some smells could be created to improve our appearance.C. Perfumes could be produced to cure physical diseases.D. Some smells could be developed to better our mood.8. We can learn from the last paragraph that .A. happiness es from a scent of sweatB.social surroundings can influence our emotionsC. people need more emotional municationD. positive energy can deepen understandingcConventional wisdom is a major barrier to innovation(创新) that threatens the survival of panies e verywhere. It’s based on the assumption that old ideas will always work, so they shouldn’t be challenged. While this may be a valid assumption in situations that don’t change, it’s unlikely to hold true in a changing situation. In today’s rapid changing global environment, old methods often don't work, and stubbornly using them can lead to major problems.Most people seem to agree with conventional wisdom because it gives one a false sense of security. If everyone else believes it, then it must be true. Individuals who use conventional wisdom are certain that they are right, and being right is good. They want to continue using old ideas rather than take risks with changes that might not work. In 1977, Ken Olsen, co-founder and CEO of Digital Equipment Corpor ation (DEC), stated “There is no reason for any individual to have a puter in his home.” Despite being a dominant leader in the puter industry, DEC no longer exists.People seem to forget that since innovation is a change, there can be no innovation without change. Unfortunately, conventional wisdom prevents leaders, followers and panies from changing and therefore innovating. If panies don’t innovate, but their petitors do, the future is likely to be problematic. Breaking from conventional wisdom has led to many of the most innovative panies and products in history across many industries, so ithas a powerful effect on business success.Ted Turner (founder of CNN) knew little, if anything, about the news business, but he knew it was inconvenient to watch news only at the dinner hour,as was mon before CNN. Turner’s solution was to create a cable channel dedicated to news 24 hours a day. The news establishment reflected conventional wisdom at the time, and predicted his idea would fail because no one wanted to watch the news all day. However, it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to understand that viewers don’t have to watch the news all day for the CNN to work. Viewers just have to watch when they want to get information. Due to conventional thinking, the critics failed to recognize the opportunity that was clear to Ted. They assumed that only what was familiar to them could work in the future.Conventional wisdom prevents creativity, flexibility and risk-taking, so unconventional leaders enthusiastically break from it. To survive, thrive and maintain petitive advantage, panies must be flexible when reacting to change.9. DEC has disappeared probably because ___________.A. the CEO stuck to the conventional ideasB. the leaders lacked the sense of securityC.the consumers didn’t like its productsD. the employees took many risks with changes10. The founding of CNN is used as an example to prove _________.A. missing opportunities could lead to failureB. conventional wisdom influences business successC. watching news at the dinner hour is convenientD. changing could contribute to business success11. What does the underlined part probably mean?A. Rocket scientists can ensure the CNN works properly.B. It’s easy to know people needn’t watch the news all the timeC. It’s necessary to understand when people watch the news.D. Most of the viewers don’t like to watch the news at work.12. The passage is mainly written to tell us that ______.A.conventional wisdom limits innovationB. opportunities lead to business successC. old methods are changing with timeD. successful panies need wise leadersDHow Super Are Supermarkets?Buying e week’s groceries is tiring. You want to get it over and done with quickly, so you head for the nearest supermarket, you find everything you need under one roof, and you feel glad that those days of going in and out of different shops in the high street are over. Supermarkets seem to be a big plus. There is a downside, though.In the UK 90% of all the food people consume is bought at 5 different supermarket chains. This makes these panies extremely powerful, which lets them use their huge buying power to squeeze small suppliers to get the best deal. Milk is a good example.Supermarkets like to use things like milk, which is the top of almost everyone’s shopping list to attract customers. To offer the lowest price possible to the consumer, the supermarkets force dairy farmers to sell milk at less than the cost of production. Supermarkets guarantee their good profits while farmers are left struggling to make ends meet, and the taxpayer pays to support the system without even knowing it.It would be nice if local grocers supported local agriculture. But for the big supermarkets this just doesn’t make sense. Supermarkets don’t want little farmers thinking they can decide prices. So supermarkets have started a global search for the cheapest possible agricultural produce. In many supermarkets it is difficult to find anything which is produced locally.UK farmers used to grow a lot of apples. Not anymore. In xx 36% of apples were imported. By xx the figure had risen to 80% and the domestic production of apples had fallen by two thirds. The consumer might just be happy to get a reasonably priced meal made up of foods from Thailand, Spain, Italy and Zambia, but we should also bear in mind the Influence on local producers.Then there’s packaging. Supermarkets like e verything to be packed and wrapped so it can be piled neatly on shelves. Supermarkets produce nearly 10 million tons of waste packaging in the UK every year, of which less 5%is recycled. Some supermarkets make sure that large recycling bins are obvious in their car parks, showing that they are environment-friendly. But that is just an image.When a new supermarket is planned there are claims about the number of new jobs that will be created. Unfortunately, the number of jobs lost in the area is larger than the number of new positions in the supermarket. On average each new supermarket leads to the loss of 276 jobs.However, the modern world is all about shopping, and the freedom to buy whatever you what, so it would be impossible to stop people shopping at some particular kind of shop. But some measures do need to be taken when small suppliers lose profits, local producers suffer, sea levels rise and jobs are lost, anyway, we can’t just care about a free car park and special offers.13.The author ment ions “milk” in paragraph 2 to explain how supermarkets____________.A. harm small suppliers ‘benefitsB. support local dairy farmerC.cheat the taxpayers D .provide customers with the cheapest product14.According to the passage, supermarkets keep price advantage by_______________.A. peting against each otherB. reducing product taxC. purchasing local productsD. importing foreign products15.What is the author’s attitude towards supermarkets?A. DoubtfulB. SympatheticC. Critical .D. Cautious第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）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。

She (32)____(win) over 100 titles in her career and earned up to $20 million.(B)One in three American children now live with only one parent. (33)____ ____ the traditional family of Japan is strong, divorce still went up quickly between 1980 and 1995.(34)____ is more important is that the nature of the family is changing. In Sweden and Denmark, around half of all babies are now born to unmarried parents, and in the United Kingdom and France more than a third.Families are getting smaller. The average Turkish family had seven members in 1970; today it has only five. And in Spain and Italy, (35)____ families were always traditionally large, the birthrate was the lowest in the developed world in 1995. This fall in the birthrate is due to the fact that, as more women have careers, they are waiting longer and longer (36)____(start) a family. The age (37)____ ____ the average woman has her first baby is now 28 in Western Europe, and it is getting later.So the nuclear family is clearly changing, but is it in danger of (38)____(disappear) completely?The truth is (39)____ it is still too early to tell. In some countries these patterns are actually reversing. In the United States, Scandinavia and the United Kingdom, the birthrate is rising once more; and in Denmark, for example, marriage is becoming more popular again. In the United States, the divorce rate in fact fell (40)____ 10 per cent between 1980 and 1990, and it is continuing to fall.Section BDirections: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.A. achievedB. authorityC. availableD. codeE. dominatedF. educationalG. opinionsH. mattersI. relatedJ. representativesK. symbolizationIt is important that students’ feelings, opinions and suggestions are listened to, taken into account, and that the right action is taken. There are a number of ways that this can be __41__, i.e. school councils, year councils and peer mentoring.School councilsMost schools have a school council which exists to let the teachers and head teacher know what students’ __42__ are on a range of school issues. The school council usually consists of two or three elected __43__ from each year group.A school council might meet once or twice a month to discuss issues such as the dress __44__, the use of social areas, charity fundraising and bullying.Year councilsBecause school councils are sometimes __45__ by older students, some schools have introduced year councils. The aim of a year council is to give students the opportunity to express opinions on __46__ of importance to that particular year group. The following is an example of the rules relating to a school’s council for year 8 (pupils aged 12-13).The head of year will attend all council meetings as an observer and both they and the other year staff will be __47__ as required to offer support and advice to council members and to assist in the settlement of arguments.Peer mentoringThere are other ways in which students’voices can be heard. One of the most popular schemes involves peer mentoring. Those who express an interest receive training to become mentors (导师) so that they are better equipped to help others. This starts from primary school age, when the mentors may get involved in issues __48__ to conflict resolution. At secondary school and at university, mentors are likely to deal with a larger variety of issues, such as __49__ and health-related matters.The belief in schemes like these is that being heard by your peers can be more effective and helpful as fellow students may have more time and understanding than teachers or others in __50__.III. Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections:For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.Many people complain that their memory is bad, particularly as they get older. Life would be so much easier if we could remember things __51__. So how can we improve our memory?Many people think that repeating things is the best way to remember. While this undoubtedly helps short-term memory (remembering a telephone number for a few seconds, __52__), psychologists doubt whether it can help you to remember things for long. The British psychologist E.C. Stanford seemed to __53__ this point when he tested himself on five prayers that he had read aloud every morning for over 25 years. He found that he could remember no more than three words of them! __54__, especially for remembering numbers, is ‘chunking’ (分块), or grouping the information. The following numbers would be __55__ for most of us to remember. 1492178919931848. But look at them in ‘chunks’, and it becomes much easier. 1492 1789 1993 1848.So what about ‘memory training’? We’ve all __56__ people who can memorise packs of card by heart --- how is this done and can anyone learn how to do it? __57__ experts, there are various ways of training your memory. Many of them __58__ forming a mental picture of the items to be memorised. One method, which may be useful in learning foreign languages, is to create a picture in your mind __59__ a word you want to remember. Another method is to invent a story that includes all the things you want to remember. People were asked to remember up to 120 words using this technique; when tested afterwards, on average, they were able to __60__ 90 per cent of them! Surprisingly, however, there is nothing __61__ about these methods --- they were around even in ancient times. Apparently the Roman general Publius Scipio could __62__ his entire army --- 35,000 men in total!__63__, not all of us are interested in learning long lists of names and numbers just for fun. For those studying large quantities of information, psychologists suggest that the best way to ‘form __64__ connections’ is to ask yourself lots of questions as you go along. So, for example, if y ou were reading about a particular disease, you would ask yourself questions like: ‘Do people get it from water?’, ‘What parts of the body does it affect?’ and so on. This is said to be far more effective than time spent ‘__65__’ reading and re-reading notes.51. A. effortlessly B. purposefully C. exactly D. carelessly52.

A. passively B. silently C. amusingly D. extensivelySection BDirections:Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)A night out in Tokyo is much the same as a night out in Milan these days, according to a survey about socialising, conducted amongst 16 to 34-year-olds around the world. Wherever you live, a typical night out is spent eating burgers, seeing American films or listening to English-language music in clubs and bars. Individual differences do survive but American culture is everywhere.Differences in the social behavior of the two sexes are also disappearing. Most people surveyed felt that it was ‘perfectly normal’ for groups of young women to go out alone, that it was ‘equally acceptable’ for young women to smoke and drink, and that a couple should split the bill when they go out together. For most young people these were the biggest differences between their own generation and their parents’.Interestingly, however, most young people interviewed said that parents are still stricter with daughters than sons about where they go and who they go with. Overall, only 10 per cent thought that parents treat their sons and daughters equally, and almost no one thought parents were stricter with their sons!Important national differences appear, however, when it comes to time-keeping. In the Far East and Eastern Europe a night out starts --- and finishes --- much earlier: there seven o’clock was the average time for meeting up with friends. For many Southern European and South Americans, on the other hand, an evening out doesn’t even start until ten or eleven o’clock, by which time many of their South Korean or Japanese counterparts are safely home in bed!Parents’ rules reflect this. Most Japanese parents expect their teenagers home by ten o’clock or even earlier, whereas in Europe it is more likely to be eleven or twelve o’clock. The most surprising findings came from Argentina, however, where it is apparently quite normal for 15 and 16-year-olds to stay out all night. But then perhaps this is because their parents have less to worry about --- 80 percent of Argentine youngsters claimed that they rarely or never drink alcohol!66. Night out in Tokyo is similar to it in Milan because ________.A. English-language activities are highly welcomedB. they are experiencing the different globalized-cultureC. American culture is very popular all around the worldD. all the young people have the same habits and hobbies67. One of the biggest differences between young people and their parents lies in ______.A. the music style and stars they lovedB. their attitude towards paying money for dinnerC. the decreasing number of young women smokingD. the time they meet up with people and have evening out68. In the last paragraph, “this” refers to ______.A. evening outB. drinking alcoholC. time-keepingD. staying up late69. What is the passage mainly talking about?A. The same night-out life in all the modern cities.B. The similarities and differences in social behaviors.C. Comparing night life between the east and the west.D. Parents’ different rules between their sons and daughters.(B)Your Write Source book is loaded with information to help youlearn about writing. One section that will be especially helpful isthe “Proofreader’s Guide” at the back of the book. This sectioncovers all of the rules for language and grammar.The book also includes four units covering the types of writingthat you may have to complete on district or state writing tests. Atthe end of each unit, there are samples and tips for writing inscience, social studies, and math.Write Source will help you with other learning skills, too:study-reading, test taking, note taking, and speaking. This makes the Write Source a valuable writing and learning guide in all of your classes.Your Write Source guide…With practice, you will be able to find information in the book quickly using the guides explained below.The TABLE OF CONTENTS (starting on the next page) lists the six major sections in the book and the chapters found in each section.The INDEX (starting on page 751) lists the topics covered in the book in alphabetical order. Use the index when you are interested in a specific topic.The COLOR CODING used for “Basic Grammar and Writing” (blue), “A Writer’s Resource” (green), and the “Proofreader’s Guide” (yellow) make these important sections easy to find.The SPECIAL PAGE REFERENCES in the book tell you where to turn for additional information about a special topic.70. If you want to learn about “Tenses of verbs” in writing, you should refer to ______.A. Proofreader’s GuideB. Special page referencesC. Table of contentsD. Different Color Coding71. Besides writing skills, which of the following skills can be found in Write Source?A. Classifying contents.B. Taking notes.C. Making science experiments.D. Matching colors.72. The purpose of the passage is to _____.A. persuade readers to buy the boo kB. offer the book’s review to readersC. introduce the useful skills in writingD. help readers to use the book skillfully(C)It is well-known that twins are closer to each other than most brothers and sisters ---- after all, they probably spend more time with each other. Parents of twins often notice that they develop special ways of communicating: they invent their own words and one can often finish the other's sentence. In exceptional circumstances, this closeness becomes more extreme: they invent a whole language of their own, as in the case of Grace and Virginia Kennedy from Georgia in the USA, who communicated so successfully in their own special language that they did not speak any English at all until after they started school.However, these special relationships are the result of lives spent almost entirely in each other's company. What happens when twins do not grow up together, when they are separated at birth for some reason? Are they just like any other strangers, or are there still special similarities between them? Professor Tom Bouchard, of the University of Minnesota, set out to find the answer to this question. He traced sixteen pairs of twins, who were adopted by different families when they were babies, and often brought up in very different circumstances. Each twin was then interviewed about every small detail of their life.The results of this research make a surprising reading. Many of the twins were found to have the same hobbies, many have suffered the same illnesses, and some have even had the same type of accident at the same point in their lives. One pair of middle-aged women arrived for their first meeting in similar dresses, another pair were wearing similar jewellery. The most incredible similarities are to be found in the case of Jim Springer and Jim Lewis from Ohio in the USA. The story of the 'Jim Twins' made headline news across USA. Born to an immigrant woman in 1939, and adopted by different families at birth, both babies were named Jim by their new parents.But what can be the explanation for these remarkable similarities? Is it all pure coincidence, or is the explanation in some way genetic? Research into the lives of twins is forcing some experts to admit that our personalities may be at least partly due to 'nature'. On the other hand, analysts are also anxious to emphasise that incredible coincidences do happen all the time, not just in the lives of twins.73. The case of Grace and Virginia Kennedy (Para. 1) is to show that ______.A. twins communicate with each other in an unusual wayB. twins are more likely to suffer from speaking problemsC. most twins have exceptional abilities to invent a new languageD. twins won’t have an effective communication until they go to school74. The purpose of Tom Bouchard’s study is to find ______.A. what will happen if twins spend lives entirely in the same companyB. why the 16 pairs of twins have been adopted by different familiesC. whether separated growing up has effect on twins’ special similaritiesD. when the special similarities come into being during their growing up75. Wha t does the word “reading” in Paragraph 3 most probably mean?A. Book.B. Interpretation.C. Literature.D. Measurement.76. According to Tom Bouchard’s research, the special similarities between twins ______.A. depend on what the twins enjoy and suffer fromB. can not be proved or accepted by all the expertsC. result from the twins’ growing up and developmentD. are not closely linked with where the twins are raised77. What can be learned from the last paragraph?A. Incredible coincidences happen to twins all the time.B. Nature is the only way to explain the similarities between twins.C. The differences between twins are to some extent the results of genes.D. Similarities shows the close relationship between two strange persons.Section CDirections: Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words.All of us exist in ‘bodies’ of different shapes, heights, colors and physical abilities. The main reasons for the differences are genetic, and the fact that people’s bodies change as they age. However, a huge range of research indicates that there are social factors too.Poorer people are more likely to eat ‘unhealthy’foods, to smoke cigarettes and to be employed in physically difficult work or the opposite: boring, inactive employment. Moreover, their housing conditions and neighbourhoods tend to be worse. All of these factors impact upon the condition of a person’s health: the physical shapes of bodies are strongly influenced by social factors.These social factors are also closely linked to emotional wellbeing. People with low or no incomes are more likely to have mental health problems. It is not clear, however, whether poverty causes mental illness, or whether it is the other way around. For example, certain people with mental health issues may be at risk of becoming homeless, just as a person who is homeless may have an increased risk of illnesses such as depression.There are other types of social factors too. Bodies are young or old, short or tall, big or small, weak or strong. Whether these judgments matter and whether they are positive or negative depends on the cultural and historical context. In fact, the culture of different societies promote very different valuations of body shapes. What is considered as attractive or ugly, normal or abnormal varies enormously. Currently, for example, in rich societies the idea of slimness is highly valued, but historically this was different. In most societies the ideal body shape for a woman was a ‘full figure’, while in middle-aged man, a large stomach indicated that they were financially successful in life.Sociologists are suggesting that we should not just view bodies and minds in biological terms, but also in social terms. The physical body and what we seek to do with it change over time and society. This has important implications for medicine and ideas of health. Thus, the idea of people being ‘overweight’ is physically related to large amounts of processed food, together with lack of exercise, and is therefore a medical issue. However, it has also become a mental health issue and social problem as a result of people coming to define this particular body shape as ‘wrong’ and unhealthy.(Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TEN WORDS.)78. Besides social factors, what are the other two reasons for differences in bodies?79. The social factors are likely to have a great effect on people’s ______ and ______.80. Valuations of body shapes change with ______.81. The “This” in the last paragraph refers to ______.第II卷（共47分）I.
